  • "Windows Vista Security Center" close browser windows, precise I have a virus, and now no programs will be opened. Windows does not start in safe mode, and all the system restore points have already disappeared.

    Hello

    I have a Dell laptop under Windows Vista Premium. I got it for about three years, and he is upset enough ok tonight. In the middle of browsing the internet, check my email, etc., all but one of my browser windows close at random, and a message appears "windows vista Security Center" whenever I try to open a new window, blocking of the site and to say that the site is dangerous and my system has been infiltrated by a Trojan horse. Then he starts the scan and says that I must buy the full to get everything to work again. I closed everything, since I already have McAfee antivirus and internet security, but it does not, and neither did any other progams. I tried restarting in safe mode to restore a backup point, but Windows does not open in safe mode, rather stick for half an hour in the middle of loading. When I managed to start windows in normal mode, I found that all my past restore points had been erased.

    This happened to someone else, and it is fixable without wiping everything?

    Thanks in advance,
    Emma

    Hi Emma,

    This could be due to a virus on your computer.  Try to make a virus on your computer scan to check if your computer is infected.

    Seems something wrong. Help, please.

    Thank you.

    If you are still able to start a normal Windows there is a work around.

    In Windows, search programs and files box, type "msconfig".

    Select the Startup tab and choose start as in the image below. Now, restart the laptop and you should start in Windows safe mode.

    Don't forget to go back into msconfig later you will start up in the normal Windows installation again. If you forget to do this, it will always start in safe mode.

    You do not specify what operating system is installed in your laptop. The procedure is valid for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7.

    Windows starts only in safe mode or safe mode with network. My screen is messed up (black and gray with horizontal lines and the screen looks like it scrolls continuously).

    I connected the laptop to an external monitor and it still does not start normally and I need to recover contacts from my iphone from itunes.

    Is there something I can do? I really don't want to lose all my contacts! I have to remove the hard drive and it burst in another machine and try to start windows normally to have access to my current drive with all the data that is on it, but I don't know if it works or if it's a bad idea.

    What could be causing the screen get all dirtied upwards and at the same time windows does not start normally? I have never had a virus before problems!

    Help! Thanks :)

    Hello

    > Windows will only start in safe mode or safe mode with networking

    It seems that the bootmanger is corrupt or something like this

    > I really don't want to lose all my contacts!

    I know, I Safe mode, you have access to all data on the hard drive. So, you can move all the important data on USB or on the partition (if available) 2 nd on your hard drive and you don't need to remove the hard drive
    Then you can reinstall Windows with a recovery disc or by using the disk copy of Win. This is the best solution in your case, try to fix windows can take a lot of time as a new installation.

  • The purpose of doing a virus scan after Windows starts in safe mode?

    I've heard some suggestions that, in certain circumstances, it is best to do a virus scan after Windows starts in safe mode. So I have two questions:

    (1) would what type of circumstances you perform a scan antivirus in safe mode?

    (2) what are the advantages or disadvantages?

    I have found no reliable info that answers to these questions and would be grateful for any info, or even just a point in the right direction.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    The advantage is that some process and services are not loaded in Mode without failure there is less chance
    This malware can load and interfere with the process. The downside is the same if its best
    to run the malware checks mode safe and then in Windows. Or run in Windows and as appropriate
    difficult to remove malware is detected then run in Mode safe, then in Windows.

    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

  • 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.

    How to restore Windows XP to a previous state

    Step 2:

    I suggest you follow the troubleshooting steps form the article and check if it helps.

    computer automatically starts in safe mode without prompting, a problem with your computer can prevent Windows to start normally

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.
