I can get the screen to select "safe mode" but then it will still freeze up before it finishes starting up.
I'd say your drive is done for, at least to the point of anything you could do with it. I would take it to a tech shop, the can pull the drive and probably recover all of your files.

From there, I'd call Toshi and get another set of restore disks, low-level format the drive, and reinstall the system.
