Press F8 rapidly as the PC is starting, and select "Safe mode with networking?"
Please try that and report back if it works or not.
Connect the laptop HDD, now in an external enclosure, to your desktop system (via USB) and pull off your data.
You can take advantage of having the laptop HDD connected to a good system and run some diagnostics on the HDD, too.
PS: If you don't know how to get at your laptop HDD and safely disconnect it from the system, let us know and we'll step you through it.
