Startup Problems after SL Install

After my install of SL on my MacBook, I'm getting a blank desktop screen when it starts up. Every once in a while I'll get the log on screen, but when I try to log on it gives me the spinning ball of death.

I can boot my laptop with safe mode, but thats about it.

Reinstall Snow Leopard...
You might of had some corruption in files along the line somewhere.. Im sure a re install will fix it.. hopefully 🙂
 
I have a quite a similar problem after upgrading to Snow Leopard. I do not have the blank screen but on several occasion after computer wakes up from sleep it says that I do not have any networks. I have to restarts to get it to work. So far so good and I hope it stays that way.

I have restarted... reinstalled SL.... Disk Utilities...


I can get my MacBook to launch into safe mode fine.. but not any other way.
