safe-mode

After uninstalling an HP Vector Mouse driver, then rebooting, when Windows tries to auto log me in, i get an error message saying tyhe following:

The User Profile Service failed the Login.
User Profile cannot be loaded.

Due to the fact that it is the only account on this PC, I cannot even go into another account.

I rebooted the machine several times, before going into Safe Mode with Networking. For some reason, I cannot create a new account whilst in safe mode (I think it is to do with UAC, nothing with UAC is clickable).

Thus, I am stuck. I cannot get into my account, nor can I create a new one to copy files over to.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: System Restore was, for some reason turned off. Thus, I cannot restore to a working point.
