After a 'crash' and reinstall sp3, my computer turns in "safe" mode Help, please!
After a reinstall full of Windows and reinstall sp3, I can only raise the computer in "safe" mode I had sp3 before and was ok? Installation online would not then end I used my original sp3 disc.
Backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows. Please note that another repair facility (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a network otherwise and before using a USB key that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

Window XP professinal machine crashed and does not even not start in safe mode.
I installed "Spybot Search and Destroy" on my Windows XP Professional machine and started the application. Received a notice of bubble that the hard drive is nearly full, and then the computer froze. Did a hard reboot and went normally up until the point when the login screen appears normally then the screen went black and nothing worked except the mouse. Do you have another hard reboot and tried to start in windows safe mode. Once again, everything is going well until the point windows should have arisen screen then black again, except this time it says xp professional SP2 safe mode window. Or something simila across the top and the bottom of the screen. I don't have my original XP disc and have no idea of what would be the product key. The computer was purchased from a former employer, at the time of the purchase by them, it was a machine under windows 2000 and they have upgraded later to XP, most likely on the internet, so no XP cd. What are my options on the recovery of XP. And if that is not possible with the lack of information do you think I can upgrade the computer to Windows 7 or should I install original version. I know that the hard drive is good because I have another old machine windows 2000 can I put the hard drive in and it will read and write from the hard drive. Problem is you can't see half of the car becase the formatting of the file is different. a majority of the data I want to save the hard drive is on the side, that I don't see in the old machine.
Joe,
first put your hard drive of the computer that you have questions with in the computer that works well. delete or move data from the old hard drive to the other disk to free up space make sure you have about 5 GB minimum FREE on the old hard drive. Also run a virus scan and spyware on this hard drive. Then try to start the player of ard again and see if you can return to windows.
Good luck! Please rate me upward if you find my post helpful. Thank you!

I have Photoshop CS4 and I need to reinstall from CD after a computer crash and reinstall Windows 7 but it will not reinstall.
This could be to uninstall because it used entirely from the control panel of Windows 7. Can anyone help?
Uninstall what you can the normal way via the Control Panel, and then use the CS cleanup tool. Then try to reinstall. You might want to try an installation download rather than the disc if it continues to fail.

It should bring up a box that says install now. Do so if she asks you to restart Firefox, do.

Updates to auto (windows Update) using. Downloaded automatically update yesterday (10thFeb10) and when I shut my computer down it started to install them - as usuall. However start my computer than this 11thFeb10 am and he began to run through regestry files when starting up. Then it is impossible to load windows. Just went to a blank screen. Rebooted several times and were able to start it in safe mode. Tried system restore but the same thing happens. Obviously there was something to this update that 'changed' my computer and I'm not happy about it! Also thought that there could be new updates (perhaps to fix the last update) but I can not even Windows Update to open it. Tried online and he tells me that I have never downloaded updates and that none are available.
I use Windows Ultimate x 86. I hope someone can help me!
Got a response from Ms. Good all who have this problem - you have an ATI Radeon graphics card? Driver is causing the conflict. Uninstall all the stuff ATI goes on ATI web site and install the download of 'single driver '. Reboot and then you can download and install other fancy programs that come with your graphics card.

my system does not start upwards - don't stop progression blue bar that goes round and round. I can boot into safe mode and safe mode with networking mode.
Hello
As you are able to boot to the desktop in Mode safe, it means that the third-party application prevents the computer from starting in normal mode. To check you can configure the computer to clean start State and then try to boot into normal mode and check what is happening. To set up its own start-up follow the link below.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353
If the problem does not continues when the computer is in the clean start State follow the steps listed to identify which application is causing the problem.
Note: When you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7 article to start on normal startup.
Hope this information is useful.
