P20 - Windows 98 appears to start in recovery mode

Hello
I'm a bit confused. I'm trying to reload windows XP from my recovery CD. However, after hit the F12 and selecting boot CD, Windows 98 is displayed. I do not have a process more much, because I don't want windows 98 on my laptop.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening. The recovery discs are original came with my laptop and it is really the first time I've bothered cleaning system because it's my pc that gets the more software put on it?
I am a little concerned because it came with win xp and when I got home I didn't register the software.
Information on the recovery cd 1/2 T #R - 01002000 & T202009 - EN. cd 2/2 and T #R - 01002001 & T202009 - EN. - the two CD were dated 2003
Any suggestions anyone.
Thank you
Steve

Hello

don't worry, this is normal.
A recovery disk is a bootable disk. That means that it loads an operating system (OS) CD and based on what it will do its job. But it does not install this OS. In case of recovery, the operating system is Windows 98. And on this platform, it will install Windows XP on your hard drive.

Good bye

  • royally botched vista, will be only the start in recovery mode is not serious what I seek

    right, I have got myself into a right 2 and 8 here. After a long and boring fight with a virus that blocked my internet and evaluate in system32, I finally managed to remove it completely. but, after his retirement, vista started crashing when I went to connect, resulting completely garbled screen. safe mode has started very well, unless I tried to activate the networking, audio or one of my ladies of virus, which caused its lockout and plant too.

    I took it to a friend at a repair shop who have kindly pointed out that, although I had removed the virus completely, or I seem to have also deleted a large number of system32 files, including the rundll32.exe all important. It recommended, as I disabled the system restore, I run the vista recovery partition to repair the damage. I did, but in my haste, I think that he overwrite some files, do not know that and now windows of only starts in recovery mode, choose any option. Even safe mode gets in the middle of the commissioning before she also starts the recovery program.

    Oh and here's the strange thing, when vista crashed in the newspaper, the screen (in the background) was quite fuzzy and pixelated, but the mouse was not and in fact, was very good. This makes me think that it is perhaps a lack of graphics driver also, driver, or who could not run because of rundll32 or one of the other DLLs where missing.

    So, what should I do? I have a lot of important files on the machine and I don't want to lose them. I have my vista disk, could I start out of it and run a repair by it? or if I can reinstall vista only? or I'll lose all my files in the procedure?

    You can do a repair on Vista installation - but you must start Windows.

    Here is the link: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html

    I have a lot of success with this and usually sugest (like vader95) that you back up your stuff and do a new installation.  We don't know what you're missing, and you're going to be fiddling around with him for always (IMO).

    Good luck!

  • E260 v2 won't start - necessary recovery mode

    My e260 v2 won't start.  After the logo screen, it says not "enough space for music DB.  Please free 90 MB' and stops quickly.  When I connect it to the computer, the computer recognizes it, but it does not appear in the Explorer.  Indeed, the Explorer crashes if the Sansa is connected.  Windows Media Player does not recognize it no more.

    After reading this forum and other sources online, I thought that the solution to my problem was to go into recovery mode and reformatting.  However, it will not be in recovery mode.  After reading a bit more, I learned that models v2 is not recovery mode, but I have not found anyone mention what to do instead.  So, how can I reset my Sansa to the factory settings?

    The "not enough space" error is most often related to a file corruption.  You will need to manually connect in MSC mode.  Step 1 of the solution includes details on that for you.

    Voila!  It's pretty simple.

  • Firefox does not, as soon as I open the window solutions, may NOT START in safe MODE?

    Recently, I accidentally begain download some unwanted addons - but I cancelled the download before being finished and quickly removed the programs by uninstalling program files issues. Firefox worked pretty well at the time, but later he started to become less sensitive. I did some cleaning (clear the cache, etc.) and done a virus scan. Has not made a difference.
    Eventually he started to get like some that I open a firefox browser - becomes inadmissible. The first two times, disconnection and reconnection to my connection int fixed. But now is not working and even after uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, it is inadmissible. I should have the version 6.0.2
    Finally, there is no way I can run firefox in SafeMode because as soon as I open the browser it is inadmissible, which means that I can not even access toolbars.

    -> Close Firefox

    • Click the Firefox button, and then click exit
    • NOW press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC keys to open the--> Task Manager process tab-> click right firefox.exe and click end process tree -> close the Task Manager

    -> Start Firefox in Mode safe by holding down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox

    • As alternative method, use the Win + R key combination and enter one of the following values in the box run Windows:

      • Firefox-safe-mode
      • "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"-safe-mode
      • "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla"-safe-mode

    -> Safe mode of Firefox window will appear-> don't SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click continue in Safe Mode

    Check and tell if its work while you use Firefox Mode without failure.

  • MBP is unable to start the recovery mode

    What I did:

    1 created a BOOTCAMP WIN7 partition.

    2 installed WIN7 without any problem.

    3. after the installation realized this BOOTCAMP partition was too small to account for the applications.

    4. in OSX, I used the disc utilities to create a new partition in the hope to expand WIN7 using computer management.

    Note: Did not know at this stage that I couldn't resize the BOOTCAMP partition.

    5. in the reboot was missing the BOOTCAMP partition. Back to OSX and deleted the partition newly created in the hope of solving problem. It does not solve the issue returned if MAC partition to the previous size.

    6. found online for instructions to restore the BOOTCAMP partition.  Basically, I have executed (sudo/dev/disk0 gdisk), track your orders: r, h, 4, y, hex MBR code default, y, n, o, o, y. When I tried to write this out I got an error.  After research, I realized that, even as root, I had no possibility to write the settings.  This required me to disable SIP.  So I booted into recovery mode, within the Terminal, I was able to run (csrutil disable).  No problem. Back to OSX, and at that time, I was able to write the settings.  Restarted and my BOOTCAMP partition was available.   At this point, I was on the original show with BOOTCAMP partition too small.

    7 bought WINCLONE and backed up my BOOTCAMP partition.  Deleted the partition, BOOTCAMP and MAC returned to the original hard disk configuration.  Back to manufacture settings.

    8. resized by car using the disc utilities for what I tried to accomplish.  WINCLONE to restore image BOOTCAMP.  This large all worked.  All partitions appear by pressing the alt/options when starting.  I can't enter EC OSX and WIN7.

    9. after having reached this point, I decided that it was important to turn SIP.  When I tried to boot into recovery mode by using alt/options the MBP displays the loading splash screen but then goes off.  So then I tried to use the command + r taking me to internet loading recovery.  The recovery screen eventually load and when I try to run (enable csrutil) I get bash command not found error.

    Note: I ran disk utility first aid on the menu of recovery OSX EC and internet, no error.  Still no luck with the transition into recovery mode.

    Current status: the two operating systems work very well.  I was even able to update WIN7 WIN10 without any problem.  I just can't in recovery mode to activate SIP.

    Any advice?

    My next option was to delete the BOOTCAMP partition and do a clean install, but I fear that my software purchased as FileMaker Pro and WINCLONE will be unavailable.  I have a Time Machine backup and running.  That said, when I tried to restore the iMac of the wife he not would allow me to restore the operating system using Time Machine.  I don't know why, but I had to use my image to restore his computer.  My MBP FileValt is currently disabled.  He was turned on but felt the need to disable it to prevent that a possible problem.  I made a backup of charges using Time Machine and also WINCLONE.

    Thanks in advance.

    Update:

    1. I just finished a clean install of EC and that corrects my SIP number.  I just want to add that Time machine worked very well!  I was able to restore all applications.

    2. next goal is trying to install WIN10 image and WINCLONE.  My hope is that it will not change my MBR.

  • Windows xp does not start in safe mode how to

    Computer says windows did not start successfully and does not start in safe mode, will not restart, do not go back to the last known good configuration

    When you choose to start safe mode, which is the last thing you see on the screen?

    When you arrive at the menu of Boot Options Advanced F8, you need to choose in this menu, the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

    If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

    If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start tapping the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restart on system failure, and then select.

    You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

    If your system has a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), we need to know what the screen says:

    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:

    http://TechRepublic.com.com/i/tr/downloads/images/bsod_a.jpg

    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).

    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.

    If it looks like there is some kind of name listed in the STOP message file, send this line also.

    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.

    Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.

    You won't get past step 1 of KB307654 or install the Recovery Console or do a repair install without a real XP bootable installation CD that matches your currently installed Service Pack (very unlikely).

    You have a real installation CD bootable XP that corresponds to your currently installed Service Pack?

  • Windows 7 is just starting in safe mode

    Hello

    Since yesterday, can I start only my operating system (windows 7) in safe mode. I tried to restore the startupfiles with the recovery dvd of windows, but I get the message that there is nothing wrong with the startupfiles. Then I took a glance to msconfig to see if 'safe mode' has been selected, but this isn't the case. I check the hard disk for defects, but also, this is not the case.

    I also try to install a previous backup of the bus system with no result.

    So now my question is, how can I solve this problem?
    Is the only way to reinstall windows 7? And if yes, how do I do that? The key to windows only I have is that in the back of my laptop, and insofar as I have now, it is a key to an OEM version?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    I've never had such a problem, so I put t have concrete advice to help you.
    You can test is to roll back the OS a few days back to see if the problem will be resolved.

    Start OS in safe mode and open system restore options. Do back up OS available back sometime and check if this will fix this strange problem.

    By the way: since when have you noticed this?
    You might have installed some Windows updates?

  • My Windows XP does not start, including safe mode

    Hi, I have a computer dell laptop with windows XP Home Edition. Is not start even in safe mode. In safe mode, it crashes after loading file isapnp.sys driver display. In other modes, it displays a white screen. I tried to replace the file sys of the installation CD but no use. I have run the command chkdsk from the recovery console, but no use. I tried to repair the xp using the installation CD. He did copy the game files and restarted after copying. But no use and crashes at the same files isapnp.sys. No error is displayed. Please help me.

    ISAPNP.sys is normally the last pilot of the group "reserved to the system", then xp loads 'boot bus extender' group. Some viruses may have injected a pilot belonging to this group: If your antivirus caught it or something strange has happened, your xp should hang at this moment.

    You have to work offline (with a live cd such as ubcd4win or mounting your hard drive on a pc, not as one bootable of course), check if there is something strange in windows\system32\drivers, for example a .sys 0 KB long file with an unusual name, then find his name in the registry (it might have a weird registry entry too)

    Take care to do a backup (export to a reg file) before you delete these entries. In addition, this type of virus usually load something else, at least as autorun (e.g. under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run), so you have to check the registry for other suspicious entries in known locations (and/or do a scan with antivirus update offline)

    These are some advanced "s maneuver", so if you do not feel comfortable and do not understand the question better if you request technical support.

    Good luck

  • Windows Vista does not start in any mode

    Okay, a month ago I lost power to my computer. When the power came back my computer would normally charge, but after the vista loading screen went the screen would remain just black.

    I loaded to the top of vista in safe mode and it worked for about 5 minutes, and then he said something about an error with the index then restarted itself.

    now I can't boot the system in any safe mode, run restore partion.

    I tried myltiple iso inages disc online including gateway recovery, windows startup repair, windows recovery, the diskette of starting windows and nothing seems to work.

    When I try to boot my pc in safe mode it hangs up on crcdisk.sys.
