I'm told it's called the 'Blue Screen Virus'

My computer was working just fine, and I got a bluescreen, i've had a few in my days of hardcore gaming. But, this one, I wasn't doing anything. When i turned my computer back on, it started up the same, then when it was supposed to go to the windows log-in screen, it just went black, stayed black, and I can't do anything. I've tried to start it up in 'Safe-Mode' but still, that screen is black, and I can't do anything, how can I fix this problem?

 

Not knowing what the information the bluescreen related I would try a boot disk first, this approach should work if your startup files are bad, missing, corrupted, or the MBR is damaged.

This approach assumes you are running XP and the operating system is located on the C drive, among other things. The files included are a boot.ini, ntdetect.com, and ntldr.
There is also this option that might set you on the road to recovery:

Just a few approaches I would try, before a repair install using a Windows disk, or using the Recovery Console. In any case I hope you resolve the issue, and learn something along the way.

When you get to the boot options menu by pressing F8, select "Last known good configuration" and see if that works. If not, select "Disable automatic restart on system failure". This should prevent a reboot if/when the blue screen error appears. That way you can write down the details from the error like the error number, the message, any file names listed, etc. and post the info here. If you have your Windows install disc, you can perform a safe reload without risking your data. It's easy... just follow the steps at this link.
