You get into failsafe mode by jabbing F8 a few times durin startup. I've made a quick search on your problem and it seems your situation is not that uncommon. Seems one solution to a similar problem was to let plug-and-play reinstall the hardware with a different driver, as I now noticed Johan K suggested already...

Some Nvidia pages seems to hint that downloading drivers while running a lot of other stuff can corrupt the driver and cause it to malfunction after install. Nothing in the official support mentions your problem specifically though so it seems you just been very unlucky.
