Default Stuck on Start Up Screen

I hope someone can help me. I have a windows 98se computer. I cant get past
the blue windows logo start up screen. I can get into safe mode but once I'm
there I'm not sure what to do to fix this problem. Can someone please help me.
I dont have any restore disks etc. This comp was given to me. There is
nothing on it that I have to save no such files or etc. I just need to know
how to get it up and running.
Thanks,
Amy
