Windows boot hangs and so does the recovery console (Solved)

After a CMOS reset, I can no longer boot into Windows. It hangs at agp440.sys when trying to boot into safe mode and I cannot access the recovery console from the backup partition or cd since it hangs too. Is there a way to manually disable agp440? I'm currently using Debian on the same drive.

I solved this thanks to securityguy14 at Windows Client TechCenter..

when you get to the advanced options, will it let you boot to any of the advanced boot options ( hitting f8 at POST ) ? if so try "last known good configuration" and see if that let you boot up. if so boot into safe mode and disable the driver.

It didn't work the first time I tried (didn't have my PCI card in at the time). I tried it again with the PCI card even though I thought I did before.
