it sounds like the new drivers are trying to display something your monitor cant.

First, is your keyboard and mouse USB? Maybe wireless, if it is, the drivers may not be able to load properly in safe mode.

Second do you have a second computer on the network with this computer, and do you have remote admin access to the one you just upgraded.

your 2 options (if my conjecture that the new drivers set the resolution and depth to a setting your monitor cannot handle) to fix it. 1st, find a keyboard and mouse that can work under safe mode, and then change the graphical settings to 800 x 600 x 16 and then reboot normally. or the second option with remote access, install remote viewing software, like tight vnc, and then connect and change the settings.
