Probably not the problem... but have you added a another hard drive or other storage device recently?
If you added a (second/third) HDD drive, or have a USB drive connected... only suggestion might be to try disconnecting it before starting and see if that helps.
I have a bad HDD drive that was causing a problem similar to yours.
Windows was apparently getting 'stuck' trying to do it's initial read/hello/whatever on the bad drive, and would sit there on the black windows logo start up screen. When I disconnected the drive Windows booted up fine.
