window 7 install, boots to blk screen w/ mouse

SO i jsut got a limited edition windows 7 ultimate 64bit cd and i previously has windows 7 64bit rc installed and when i install the disc i just got it installs fine and everything but when it restarts it goes to the finishing installation and then it starts to boot up but gets stuck at blk screen with the mouse. I have had this problem before with windows 7 rc but all i had to do was just start it in safe mode then shut it down from there and start it back up it normal mode and it worked, but this i cannot do that. I go to safe mode and it goes to applying settings screen (doesnt do this in normal mode like it should) but it says it cannot finish this in the safe mode... so yeah... I am getting pretty mad because this is the final version of the software and it shouldnt have this problem omg! Please help me, would be very well appreciated.

Hello shortysbest

when at that screen hit SHIFT+F10 and type in taskmgr and press enter.

See if setup.exe is running or frozen, if its not running you can click "new task" and type in setup.exe.

Thank you i will try this tomorrow
