I recall this happening to me in the past.

Hit esc when the loading bar starts to run across the screen and see what it stops on. 

Go into single user mode and see if you can look at the logs. 

Can you select the older kernel when the grub pops up?

You may have to use chkconfig to disable services from starting after you see whats in the way.
