After doing a system restore factory on my toshiba satellite when my windows screen it asking admin password I tried the old but it won't work but I can get on in safe mode please help

It is a toshiba satelliteL505D-Ls5001

When you perform a factory restore then all passwords are cleared and you are prompted for an account name (that you choose) and his password.

If you are prompted for a password to an existing account, then you don't have a factory restore. Maybe you did a Windows restore to a Restore Point, in which case the password is the one that was current when the Restore Point was created.

If you can get in Mode safe under an admin account you can reset any desired password.

    I think that this virus - the main I think is trojan.

I have Vista.

  • All my files are gone after doing a system restore

    Tuesday, I spotted that I was behind on my updates so be fairly busy told windows draft.exe all and he then installed.
    When I came back to my computer (after the restart). I found that windows had created a new user, Temp. On this temp Itunes was not installed and none were anything else.
    I got itunes to add the library again and I continued a bit annoyed with Vista
    Then I noticed that my hard drive was packed even if I had loads of free space. So I decided to do a system restore.
    He got rid of the Temp and in the process most of my files.
    After much research, I decided to cancel the restoration of the system think that logically it that would result is error.
    Bad...
    Cancellation of the restoration of the system made the rest of my files disappear.

    I'm no expert, but I do not think that my files were gone I believe that something has happened in the root directory (hope only maybe blind).
    When I search for my vista documents found, but if clicked told me that the item that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut no longer works correctly.

    If anyone can help?

    Hello

    You can try some third-party data recovery software which is available free on the Net and try to recover the lost files. You can access the link below and download the file and check if the files can be recovered.

    If you restart the computer, also restarts in Mode safe?

    If so, try this...

    Start button > Search box, type msconfig > press the Enter key > at the top, click on Startup tab > make sure that there is no check mark in the security box boot > if so, uncheck it > make sure there is NO checkmark anywhere in this window > click Ok when finished.

  • Screen won't turn on and can run Vista in safe mode on Satellite P series

    Last night, I was working on a slide show with windows movie maker in Vista. I had trouble getting the software to recognize my video files for my camcorder, so I suggested that I try to download codec so that he could play my files... I don't know what I was doing, but he gave a shot.

    Even if the codec didn't work even after the download, I was still able to run my computer normally. This morning I woke up and continued to work on my slide show but my computer wouldn't play my slideshow. All he would do was play music and audio files... Everything seems to be working so I decided to restart it.

    My computer will restart, but now my screen is black. It remains 'functions' I see change different colors of black and gray because it is set to zero... and I can hear all the audio that comes with reset, but I can't get my laptop screen to work.

    I plugged my desktop monitor to my laptop to see if the monitor would work like that and it did for about 30 seconds, then turned off Black too. I then rebooted and press F8 and ran in safe mode with my always-connected desktop monitor. I am able to run in safe mode but not normally reboot. I think I downloaded some viruses with this codec.

    I decided to get the desktop monitor and press F8 just hoping the screen would show up on my laptop... but it still doesn't work. It stays black.

    Now, I'm running in network mode so I can know what to do next. I tried a restore of the system in safe mode, but I think that it only deleted windows updates and not something else. I can't find my toshiba recovery CD because we moved a month ago and it's somewhere in a box...

    So here I am. I work constantly on a slide show for Christmas and can't play or it end before my laptop works again. I also tried a during restart System Restore but I don't know my password of administrator and I tried a couple that I thought that I would have used during installation, but they were not good and so now he me off to run as administrator.

    Can someone tell me what I can do? Thank you very much

    I'm a newbie here, but have you tried...

    1. press F8 (press on and hold, or press repeatedly) while Vista boots, and then select Safe Mode. This should automatically open the account administrator (no password needed) and you can then reset your existing account to the administrator.

    2. simply delete all user accounts permits (including the one you are logged as) without forgetting to let the disabled administrator account. And then disconnect.

    3. use Offline NT Password & Registry Editor to unlock the administrator account or promote another user to the local Administrators group to regain access to your locked Windows Vista PC.

    4. also Vista has a hidden superuser account.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Hi, Patty Young. Need you to restore your computer settings or the recovery disk or your computer must have a recovery partition. To start in safe mode, you simply press the F8 key when you see the initial screen and then choose Startup mode in the Advanced menu options. I honestly recommend however, that can you tell me what your question is so that we can try to resolve without the need of recovery.

  • I have windows xp after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode

    I have windows XP after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode?

    Hello

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         What happens when you try to start in normal mode?

    Method 1

    Windows XP can in every start Safe Mode by default. Even if you select the option Start Windows normally, it always starts in Mode without failure. IOW, you can't get out of safe mode.

    This happens if the switch/SafeBoot is added to the Boot.ini file. / SafeBoot parameter forces a boot in safe mode by using the specified parameters. The available parameters are:

    (a) minimal

    (b) network

    (c) safeboot: minimal (alternateshell)

    For more information about the boot.ini switches, see visualization and correction of the settings of the boot on x 86 systems

    RESOLUTION

    (a) click Start, run and type MSCONFIG

    (b) click the Boot.ini tab

    (c) If you have a dual-boot system, select the entry that is appropriate under the [operating systems]

    (d) in section downstairs, Startup Options uncheck / hisFEBOOT

    (e) click OK

    (f) restart Windows

    The entry/SafeBoot are removed from the Boot.ini file.

    Method 2:

    If the above method is not the cause, it seems that Service Pack 3 is not installed correctly.

    Step 1: You try to run the system restore from safe mode that will repair return the computer to the point while it was working fine.

    my computer is infected with a virus, I'm doing a system restore, but when I click on the tab to do it I get a message tha States window cannot find the path of restoration of the suggestions.

    Hello

    By using the system restore when you have malicious software is not a good idea, although she would go. System restore
    can actually help to spread malware and make more difficult or impossible to remove the malware. Best
    to remove malware and if it does Restore Point then use those IF necessary.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
