If last known good configuration doesn't help (and you've already tried safe
mode so it probably won't but it's worth a try) then you can do a repair
installation without breaking anything. After this is done you might want to
scan for malware and you will need to do all of your updates including SP2
if it's not on your CD to begin with.
