Windows Update - Computer no longer boots up

Help!
05/08/07 - I was using my Dell 600m laptop as I normally do, and I
noticed the shield in the system tray which indicated I had three
updates ready. I proceeded with the Express Install. After I was
finished with my work, I re-booted for the updates to take affect.
Now my computer doesn't boot up at all. I can't even boot to Safe
Mode to undo the updates.
During the boot-up phase, I do get the Windows XP (home version)
screen and that bar going across the middle of the screen, but then
instead of bringing up my desktop, the screen goes blank.
Booting to Last Known Good Configuration results in the same.
Booting to Safe Mode gives me a bunch of lines of
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2), etc ...
.... and it hangs up when it gets to Drivers\agpCPQ.sys
I don't know if it's stuck on this one or the one after.
Booting to VGA mode gives me the blank screen as well.
I haven't done a repair to Windows yet, as I wanted to exhaust my
other options first.
What to do?
Thanks in advance.
