Try the following steps:

Restore point:

Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

See you soon.

  • Computer starts only in safe mode

    I went to stop my dell studio 1737 last night and it is stuck on "shutting down" and so finally I used the power button to turn it off, and now it will only start in safe mode or safe mode with network.  My restore disk is in stock somewhere as I just moved it background.

    Can someone help me solve this problem without the ERD?  I made the diagnosis and it passed everything.

    Hi KDWilson,

    1 did you recent hardware or changes to the software of the system?

    2. you receive messages or error codes when you try to start in normal mode?

    Because you can start in safe mode, you can try to perform a system restore and see if it helps.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following links:

    I'm running a quad core with 8 GB of windows 7 with office 2013 RAM.  All are clean installs.  When I try to play a video file on Media player my system breaks down and made a memory dump.  This also happens when I try and put a video in PowerPoint.  I am able to play these videos on QuickTime on the same machine.  The videos play fine on another machine of Windows 7 office 2013.  We use this system for presentations churches.

    Hello

    1. Do you have an error message when you play this video?
    2. What Media Player do you use?
    3. Did you recent hardware or changes to the software to the computer before the show?

    I suggest using Windows Media Player, then try the following steps. This problem may occur because of codecs. A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use codecs to play and create digital media files.

    Hey Buddy,

    If the computer starts only in safe mode, this means that something has confused the OS

    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
    by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide

  • After you have installed SP3 (on XP with SP2), the PC does not restart in normal mode, only in safe mode

    After you install SP3, PC does not restart in normal mode, only in safe mode, without giving a clear indication of what is the problem or how to fix it - other than say to check settings in the Panel (not very useful).

    PC is a Compaq Presario desktop with AMD processor, model #: SR1720AN product #: EL540AA-ABG

    I reinstalled the operating system recovery disks, which reformats HD and installed XP with SP2.

    I then installed the SP3 from a flashdrive (361 MB files). Everything went without hiccups, but final restarts, he won't get to normal mode, safe mode only.

    I did it twice.

    Any ideas? Thank you.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop Compaq Presario SR1720AN. According to the specification, this model comes with a processor AMD and Windows XP Home Edition SP2 installed at the factory. According to your description, it seems that the HP recovery discs may have been poorly photographed for an AMD-based computer. Please see this Microsoft article and this HP document about your problem.

    To solve your problem, please reinstall Windows XP SP2 by booting from your HP recovery disks. After Windows XP SP2 is complete restored and that your computer is operational, download the "Windows XP SP3 with AMD CPU upgrade utility." Run this utility, and then restart your computer. Then download the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Package of Network Installation" for it professionals. You can also try to use the SP3 Installer on your USB. Install the update to Windows XP SP3 and then restart when you are prompted to.

  • Computer guard boot in safe mode, following a bad virus

    Hello world.
    My laptop was recently infected by a rather nasty virus that stopped me being able to open my anti-virus (avast) software in order to get rid of it. There was a lot of other programs I could not open the internet including Explorer. I left my computer for a few days and decided to buy a system restore software to completely erase my hard drive. I was quoted £50 so I decided to have a last date. I started windows in safe mode and miraculouly managed to open avast this time, I did a full scan and 9 infected files deleted.
    All the virus seems to have disappeared, but there are a few remaining problems. Now, whenever I turn on my computer windows starts in safe mode (even when I select the option to start windows normally). Windows Explorer keeps not working and closure (for example, when I try to go to the control panel) and my laptop will not connect to internet broadband in my house.
    Is it possible that I deleted some important system files while getting rid of the virus, or everyone recognizes it as something else? I'm scared, I'm just a normal user, and I don't know too much about computers so please go easy on me.
    I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer.

    Method 1:

    To disable:

    a. Click Start, type msconfig.exe and press enter

    b. now click on the Startup tab and uncheck the option of safe mode.

    This looks like a temperature problem.  Go to http://www.download.com and download Speedfan.  It will show you the internal time.  If they are all under 50 degrees C, you're OK, if they are over 65, that's your problem, between watching the bears.

    Another possibility is a virus or corrupted system files.  Get your updated antivirus program, and then run a full system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    `

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

It looks like its in safe mode, all the browsers that I look like they are on the big screen and the colors of the text and different things are a gey / light blue contrast, what I can do to change it please help thanks.

    PS: I was wondering it was the person who initially set the problem not install a driver correctly or I need to change the screen resolution. as it is said that the recommended resolution should be 1440 x 960 but when I go to setting it does give me not this option to go very high. advice or assistance would be thank you very much.

    Hi Eric and Caz,

    You are welcome.

    HP for your PC specifications indicate that he left the factory with Win Vista, 32-bit, SP1, Media Center.

    Software download site and the driver of HP lists no (original or updated) driver for the GeForce 6150se graphics.

    NVIDIA has a 32-bit or a 64-bit driver update are released in 2010.

    the 32-bit version is available here.

    64-bit version is available here.

    You could try a recovery of the plant. You have recovery discs? Unfortunately the recovery disc for your PC not available suppliers of disk recovery HP or third party such as Best2Serve or surgeons of the computer.

    The last option would be to buy a low-profile, low-power graphics card compatible with your Slimline and install the new card and the drivers provided by the manufacturer of the card.
