  • No signal when start and can't get into safe mode.

    So, I have an E machine with microsoft xp on it. And last night I lost the signal of the monitor. But I just restarted it and she came back. But he started for about every five minutes after re boot. I put it in save mode, and he continued to do so. And then when I started again, there was a "serious error of microsoft" and I sent the error to microsoft, as well as something active desktop. Showing all the reasons of what can happen. My computer is really slow so I decided to just drive with flash reprogramming CD, I put in and restart it and I don't get any signal constantly even now when I reboot... Please help, thanks.

    Hi andreasburlet,

    ·         You see a message on the screen?

    ·         Have you checked for fine connections?

    ·         Do you want to say that you tried to reinstall Windows XP?

    Method 1: Ensure that all connections on the monitor are tight.

    Method 2: Connect and disconnect a RGB cable can help them as well and that could ensure a good signal. Look at the end of the cable to see if you have all the appropriate pins.

    Method 3: You can also try with another monitor, if possible. It could also be your video card. See if it is connected. If you are not comfortable doing so, communicate with a known person.

    If your machine is blue-screening after booting from the XP installation disk, it suggests that your problem is with the hardware rather than auto-run.

    I recommend taking your machine to a local service shop, unless you are confident enough rooting in the bowels of your computer.

    I tried to load a page which seems to have had a built-in buggy video ad, and now Firefox is stuck. It stops responding, but when I force quit and reopen it, it opens the offending page, still too and it freezes again. I tried to restart my computer and reinstall Firefox and the problem continues to be. I can't follow the advice I've seen here on open mode without failure or clear my cache, because Firefox crashes before I can do it. I there a way to make these Firefox outdoors?

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    I get an Fatal Exception on start up error and I can only run in safe mode on my dv6, can someone please help?  I don't really want to reset to the factory settings I have to reinstall everything.  I tried to go back through the system restore, but it keeps telling me that there is no restore point?  I'm running Windows7 64 bit OS

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Hazel,

    Start in Safe Mode, open windows control panel, open programs and features and uninstall Comodo Firewall (this will probably be listed as Comodo Internet Security depending on the version).

    Once completed, restart the laptop in Safe Mode .

    As before, open all programs, open accessories, right-click on command prompt and select "run as Administrator".  In the command prompt type the following commands and press enter after each one.

    Drivers CD                (Note that there is a space between cd and drivers)

    del cumon.sys           (Note that there is a space between the led and cumon.sys)

    output

    NOTE: If you get an error after entering del cumon.sys as the "specified path cannot be fouund", it's Ok.

    Restart the computer and see if Windows starts normally.

    Kind regards

  • I've updated to Firefox 36 automatically, however, it does not start. I tried firefox safe mode, reinstall, uninstall avg antivirus, eks.

    The computer restarts during the night to install updates. Everything was fine, but now Firefox, which has been updated to version 36, will not launch. Basically, I double click on it, I get a little access to the disk and nothing. I tried to start firefox safe mode. Same thing is happening. I uninstalled by deleting any Mozilla Firefox files, programs and relocation. Still will not start. I uninstalled the old version of AVG. Still will not start. I have Microsoft Security Essentials running and have updated. Still will not start. I need new ideas.

    I just want to confirm a step that you took. When you say you deleted the program files Firefox content, this may have taken all the Firefox of the components off of your computer.

    The steps that you must follow to remove a potentially corrupted installation of firefox are:

    Open your Start menu, select "program files." In program files, select "Programs and features", this should open your window "uninstall or change a program". In this window, locate your program "Mozilla Firefox". Select the program with a left click then "Uninstall", which will appear once the program is highlighted.

    This process will remove the registry changes that can ask questions. After you completely uninstall firefox from your programs, perform a new installation of the latest version of the browser.

    If you have already completed this process without success, so there may be other problems with your windows updates, it's not uncommon. If you have problems after a new installation of Firefox, after following the instructions above, please check if your browser "Internet Explorer" is to have the same questions, if yes, then you may have problems more serious that will require new measures.

  • I can't get Firefox to open at all. Does anyone else have this problem?

    FF just opens when I click it. In the Task Manager, it appears in the background process only. I am running windows 8.1 on a laptop. I tried to restart the machine, I tried (many times) to uninstall and reinstall FF. When I look in the support section, I keep running into the help which is based on having a window open, FF which doesn't work at all, so it does not help. I am at my wit's end and I'm not fond of IE or chrome. Thanks for any help you can provide!
