    If you don't already have a current backup of all data, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.

    If the machine is connected to the network via Ethernet, disconnect the cable.

    If it's connected via Wi-Fi, try to start up in Recovery mode. Select

              Turn Wi-Fi Off

    from the Wi-Fi menu in the menu bar.

    Try again to restart as usual. While disconnected from the network, you won't be able to log in to a network account on an Open Directory or Active Directory server, but you may be able to log in to an account local to the machine. Post your results.
