can't start up and im hot

I will will try to tell the story without getting into to much detail. Im hot and at the end of my wits now. Intel dul core 3 gig. motherboard 1.2 gig fsb two seagate baracudas 250gig, 250gig, 4 duel layer burners, (light-on), in the 3-1/2 slot i installed a piece of hardware which i forgot the name of for digital media.handles about 15 different type of cards i think. duel monitor card asus and two samsung digital syncmaster 24 digital monitors. XP Pro.

As stupid as it sounds, i had a hp printer hooked and everything worked fine. i was trying to share the printer but made a mess instead. instead of unsharing the printer i deleted the printer instead. (don't ask). reinstalled the printer software and the problems started. (safe mode only). logo comes up and thats it. (black screen). tried starting with the printer off because the software never detected the printer again.

my question:
it only starts in safe mode. Logo comes up and thats it.

the other thing is the operating system is trying to start up on the right sceen. it was the my left screen before. i didn't change nothing. im at the end of my wits.

thanks

thank you.............tremmor
