How can I connect on my laptop, but not in safe mode?

Comcast told me that I should never open my Dell laptop in safe mode.  I don't know how to change this mode.  Can you help me?  The laptop is so slow (only 3 years) and takes 15 minutes to raise even start working.  Thank you

not sure why comcast said here.

Perhaps, there is a set communication.

in any case, there are a number of things you can do to speed up the computer and the test computer is safe mode is a good idea.

so go ahead and boot your computer and wait for the desktop to load.

You must also make sure that the ethernet cable is unplugged or the phone line is disconnected the modem before you start the computer.

After loading the desktop computer, click Start > run > .msconfig

(type and enter above msconfig)

Then go to the Startup tab and check the box start secure, then reboot and the machine will launch safe mode.

(by the way, to return to normal mode, repeat the steps to open msconfig and uncheck secure boot)

now that you're in safe mode, test the computer.

If works better, then we can perform a "clean boot" for operations in normal mode.

    Keep F8 hitting twice a second immediately after you have switched on the PC. You should get a boot menu where safe mode is selectable using the up/down arrow keys.

    Or, use the msconfig utility. When you do it this way, Windows starts in SafeMode permanently until you reverse the changes in msconfig...

  • I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop, but not my other devices such as iphone/ipad. Any suggestions?

    I just bought a new Airport Express Terminal. It connects to my laptop and I have working internet, but my iphone/ipad do not work with it. They say they are "connected" to the wireless network but nothing works / charges on other devices. I tried to forget the network, by renewing the lease, etc and nothing works. Any suggestions as to why my laptop works but not other devices?

    What is the serial number and model of the modem you use?... or... The AirPort Express connects directly to the Ethernet wall port?

  • How can you "Bring object to Front" (but not to the end!) in AS3?

    1. imagine a swf file that shows an image (the image is a music video btw).

    2. now imagine three objects behind which frame (each are video clips).

    3. I use the ' object bring forward the "code snippit of each have three objects come forward when you click it.

    Question: How can I do so that the objects do not go in front of the image?

    P.S. I'm super new to AS3, so feel free to talk to me like I'm a child of five. I'm not offended.

    / * Wear any object clicked forward

    By clicking on any symbol on the stage posing in front of all other cases.

    */

    This code makes all occurrences of symbol on the clickable scene by listening for the CLICK event.

    for (var fl_ChildIndex:int = 0;

    fl_ChildIndex<>

    fl_ChildIndex ++)

    {

    this.getChildAt (fl_ChildIndex) .addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToBringToFront);

    }

    This is the function that moves the selected object to the front of the display list

    function fl_ClickToBringToFront(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    this.addChild (event.currentTarget as DisplayObject);

    this.addChild (yourpictureframe);

    }

  • How can I make Firefox the browser but not to make the default browser?

    I want to use Firefox as a browser on some sites, but not all. I don't want to make Firefox or Internet Explorer as default browser but use each on sites such as Google or MSN certaion web.

    For your choice of default browser, consider that you want to manage links in other programs, such as word processors, Adobe Reader, or an external e-mail program. Windows will use your default browser to open links.

    Then, when you visit a site in a favorite browser, open the browser and use bookmarks or Favorites to get there.

  • Can only connect to the account of user in safe mode, what do I do?

    There are two accounts on my profile. I can connect fine, but the other (the most important) will not let me connect unless the computer is in safe mode. If I try to log in it says: "Please wait", before you redirect me to the previous login screen. I tried to copy all my info on a new account, but the music folder will not copy without permissions, and I found that a lot of my installed programs also are not copy correctly. What are my options? Everything can I? All this seems to occur after you install an update to Windows Vista. I'm running Vista 64, btw.

    Suggestion:
    You said... but on the other (the most important) will not let me connect unless the computer is in safe mode.

    So go in safe mode > login to this account admin (the most important) > and do a system > choose a date where you did NOT have this problem as your restore point.

    Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, click
    > Next > finish
    To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

    If the system restore is not enough, you need to create another account administrator in safe mode.
    Treat the former admin count as damaged account.

  • How can I turn off the prompt to start in safe mode?

    I noticed that, since the 18th of Firefox on Windows 8, I observed here safe mode window: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode?esab=a & as = aaq #w_safe-mode-window_2 pop up when Firefox crashes asking me to run mode without failure.

    This window is helpful, but I want to turn it off. The circumstances in which I use Firefox it loads right in the window of the browser immediately (I am in the automated browser test.) The reason why my browser stopped is that I killed him with my script to send the command "taskkill /f /im firefox.exe" or "killall-9 firefox")

    Safe mode window still does not load for me. I only noticed on Windows 8, not on all other platforms, but force intervention from me to go forward, I want to avoid.

    Get help turning that off would be appreciated.

    Hello, you can try this - enter on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named toolkit.startup.max_resumed_crashes. Double-click it and change its value to something very high as 999999 (setting to 0 or - 1 will also work, but I've not tried it myself).

  • I want the cursor to be in the address bar when you create a new window; It works for new tabs and a new private window, but not in safe mode.

    I tried following the advice offered in the different threads bit I found on this but nothing works out. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I solved the problem for new tabs via subject: config, but it does not work for the new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In a new private window, the cursor is in the address bar.

    A new window opens the homepage (default: subject: House) and not the new tab page (default: subject: newtab).

    Some of the built-in pages set the focus to the search bar on the web page, just like the Google site only.

    You can use a bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar that opens the subject: blank page.
    If you hold down the SHIFT key when you click this bookmark, then you open a new widow with this page.
    Otherwise, you need to set the home page to about: blank or on the point: about to have easy access to all the pages.
