• 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.

• How do you get sound on safe mode if it has not told!

  How do you get sound on safe mode if it has not told? He didn't use to say! It is possible a hacker has stolen the sound and typed it is? It could have been someone who was company or seized that they work in or landed a job at the company laptop I have! phyllisfc

  Frankly I doubt that you ever had its Mode without failure.  Safe mode is a specially designed Windows state that charge only a very minimal set of very generic for devices drivers, so that you can resolve problems or solve problems that cannot be solved with the full software and driver responsible.  Sound is one of the first things that gets tossed by the window, as improved video drivers, network drivers and so on.

• How can I stop Vista to boot into safe mode? Vista does not meet F8 when starting upwards.

  How can I stop Vista to boot into safe mode? Vista will not run on F8 before Windows starts.

  Update: I did system restore and still Vista boot in safe mode. More, start > run > "msconfig" > tab "Startup" and "Safeboot" was not selected. Any other suggestions?

  Vista still restarts in safe mode. 'Safe Mode' will now appear in the four corners of the screen and "Microsoft (R) Windows (R) (Build 6001: Service Pack 1)" appears at the top to the center of the monitor. ???

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

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

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

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

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

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

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

• Police is blurred, works if I'm in firefox 'Safe Mode '.

  It is not the police on the text I type with, but the address bar, bookmarks (include images), so all located above the tabs (include the text/images tab), and the right click menu. If I'm in the mode without failure of Firefox everything works very well, I tried to disable all the addons, but the problem is still there.

  Edit:
  Tried to reset firefox by default, did not work. Uninstalled firefox and removed everything, did not work. Downloaded firefox portable to portable applications, works, but I don't want it to be portable.

  Hello Frejoh466, try turning off hardware acceleration and check again (in safe mode hardware, acceleration is disable).

  Thank you

  I tried to use system restore, but he says he has not found a moment of restoration which is good.

  The main concern right now for me is to get my personal data and files on the computer.  I still have another computer to use, so I'm not so worried about starting the computer.  I want to find a way to the first backup of my personal data and files from the computer to external devices, then try to repair the computer.

  Thank you.

  Hi DreamMeng,

  You can try to use third party software to back up data and check.

  You can use your favorite search engine to navigate on the third-party data backup software and that the software allows to save data.

  Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• HP Pavilion looks like it is in safe mode when it is not

  Hello

He started with the screen changing colours as: green and blue then places pinky/red then yesterday it would not turn on just and there was a loud hum from the tower. screen not turn on so I had to get it looked at, the guy in the store said it was my video/graphics card that was the problem and he said he had 2 graphics cards in the computer, one of the map was built and the other, he said the problem was, so he went out. in any case now that I have the back of the computer and I turned on. how it works perfect except for a problem. 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.
