You dont tell us what Mac you have and what OS you are running ??
But by the sounds you have some corrupt files, which are playing havoc and killing the start up.

But 1st if you have the install disk's is to boot up with that and hold down the 'c' key when booting.
And from the installer window click Disk Utility and you then need to Run Repair Permissions ..

Post back with as much info as you can as well, because this gives everyone a better chance of helping you with your problem...

Cheers
