So take it you can view the screen does windows load in if it does then you may be able to access the explorer bar. Use ctrl alt del file new task and run and go from there. I take it you are not using your computer to type this question

Try restarting it in safe mode and then do a system restore to a point where the computer worked properly. (assuming you have windows xp).
Link below for booting into safe mode:

If safe mode is not an option, then try booting to the command prompt and then doing a systerm restore.

If either of those options don't work then either format and reload, or call a local tech (ex. Geek Squad).

First install OS, if you didn't installed one.
If you are using some OS try to restart it.

If you are at work... phone IT support and go for a long coffee break!
Otherwise... reboot.
