If you can boot with a disk that will allow you to see the entirety of
your C: drive, that would be a good start.

How much data do you need to recover? Would it be too much to shuttle

vxd are virtual device drivers. In Win98 these vxd errors often are
caused by loading a vxd device driver before that device is ready to be
started. The CD rom drive comes immediately to mind. Disconnect all
peripherals including the printer and cd-rom. See if then safe mode is
accessible. You might also try booting to BIOS setup and restoring
default settings.
