madmacca,
We could use a little more information.

What version of Windows and service pack level are you?
Do you have an error message, and if yes what is it?
Nothing changed prior to the show starting (hardware or software)?

When you start in Safe Mode, a minimal boot and will see if this you start normally.
Here is information on the clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353

  • my computer only works in safe mode.

    my windows xp used to work perfectly until frezzing began as soon as this was done louding and I don't have what it takes to reinstall it is sp3. dose snyone know causeing what is the problem and how to fix it. would be nice if you can help me quickly.

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to know if your problems are caused by hardware or software. Given that the machine works in Mode safe mode, start with basic troubleshooting software:

    Make sure that the computer is clean:

    If the computer is really free of virus/malware and the problem persists - and you must make the malicious and Prep work first, don't skip it - then do boot in diagnostic mode to determine what is running in normal Mode, which is the origin of the problem.

  • my computer only works in safe mode and will not start in normal mode I have no virus, what could be the problem

    I don't know what your problem is, but I would point out that when you say "I have no virus", you could very well be wrong

    No antivirus program is perfect, and the more popular (Norton and McAfee) are among the worst. Just because they do not catch something doesn't mean you're not nfected.

    In addition, more virus there are other types of malware, such as spyware, and even if you have no virus, you could be infected with spyware.

    For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
    to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (do not run more than one) of the following three:
     
    Avira AntiVir
    Avast
    Microsoft Security Essentials
     
    You also need anti-spyware software (even if you run a program like Microsoft Security Essentials, with anti-spyware feature integrated into it). I recommend that you download and
    install MalwareBytes AntiMalware (freeware)

  • Firefox crashes at startup, only works in safe mode

    Hello.
    As the title says, I can't start Firefox because it crashes instantly. It only works in safe mode.

    That's what I've tried so far, but it did not work:

    Restored Firefox.

    Reinstalled Firefox and also delete my profiles.

    Hardware acceleration disabled.

    Thanks in advance, I hope you can help me.

    Thanks for your answers, I've updated my graphics card driver, now I can use Firefox out of safe mode with disabled hardware acceleration.

    There is another problem now, Firefox crashes when I try to start with Profile Manager, I use two different profiles, so I need this feature.

    Here are two reports of incidents on the problem:

    Hello

    Why you don t give us more information about your problem? We don't know what unit you have? Is the original part of card or you have built at least?

    At the moment I can just recommend you to reinstall the unit with recovery media. If the problem persists, try to install the card separately with the right driver. Otherwise, you must change the WiFi card or test it with the other.

  • WiFi only works in safe mode

    WiFi worked normally on my Mac Pro and then suddenly yesterday I received signal and an IP address but pages load. Other devices and computers work well with my wifi router. I can also surf the web very well when I boot in safe mode. However, when I restart my computer, then no wifi again. I can then go back into safe mode and get internet. I did no new software updates, installations or router configuration changes that may cause this problem from one day to the other. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Since then, I tried the following:

    -restart my router

    -renew the DHCP lease

    -flushed out DNS cache

    "- removed 4 files of./Library/preferences/SystemConfiguration/" then restarted computer

    -rebooted in safe mode

    -reset the SMC

    -turned off bluetooth

    -hidden "iTunes Helper" elements of opening under my user account. The only listed element.

    These errors can be caused by hardware and software issues, and it can be difficult to solve the problem. The following methods and tools can often help get Windows running again.

    1. what operating system is installed on your computer?

    2. What is the code in the exact error message or Blue Screen of Death?

    3. have you made any recent hardware or exchange of software on your computer before the show?

  • LCD monitor only works in safe mode

    I connected a new monitor and will work in safe mode. I tried to change all the settings in safe mode but nothing seems to work when I restart the computer in normal mode. Help, please

    I'd like to see if you can install any software that came with your monitor.

    There is another option to enter in Windows Vista, choose activation lower-resolution (640 X 480)... .or the VGA mode as it used to be called.

    Try to install the drivers in safe mode if it does not work.

    If these don't work, let me know the exact model you new monitor so I can see if I can find any known issues.
