Laptop won't start up

HI
I'm having a problem with a laptop when I start it everything seems fine and it loads the initial log in screen however when I enter my password it starts to load but never does it just sticks on "Welcome" If I start it in "Safe Mode" this doesn't happen.

Does anyone know of anything I can do or will I have to have it looked at by a specialist?

FYI I'm running windows vista home premium.

Thanks

    Why dont you go into safe mode again and pick "last known configuration " Or system restore.
    Mine usually sticks on the Welcome screen after Windows updates but i just go do something else and it loads up in the end.
