Computer does not start in normal mode. It crashes just before the password screen. How can I check the status of the video card in safe mode?

Hi HK-Sheko,

You have uninstalled and reinstalled the video drivers for your computer or video card manufacturer's Web site?

Also, here are a few additional troubleshooting:

  • Firefox crashes on startup in normal mode and safe mode does not start reset mode

    using 26.0 FF
    using windows 7 Home premium v 6.1 (last)

    My problems started after the loading of 26.0 FF. If I start FF in normal mode it crashes. Same thing when I boot in safe mode. I close FF (while it's hanging) by clicking on the X in the upper right.

    When I launch FF in safe mode and click Reset FF, it crashes without FF never appear. I have to stop it using the Task Manager. Off mode reset, I can launch FF in normal mode and everything works fine. However, stopping FF does not close it. I have to use the task of the Manager close. Then I'm at square one when you try to start FF, i.e. reset firefox, crashes, Task Manager, stop, then start FF.

    When FF is on, I can open a new window of FF. All my addons are up-to-date. I reinstalled FF 26.0, three or four times.

    I deleted the cache and cookies.

    I scanned for viruses and rootkits etc. with microsoft security essentials and spybot.

    I've been a happy user of FF for over ten years and have never had a problem like this. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I think that I fixed it, it gives a trial because he has started to do this on my two PCs.

    Go to Options > general tab > start switch / "Show a blank page" and the charges of all good. What I used was 'Show my home page' which is the default page of Firefox with the Logo of Fox and history, Favorites and other options at the bottom.

  • Firefox is faster on the safe mode. Even when I disable all extensions and plug-ins, it does still work on normal mode. What should I do?

    I already tried to uninstall e install again, but rest the problema. When I use safe mode, firefox works correctly. I tried to remove all extensions and plug-ins, but the problem persists. Even my mouse pointer moves slowly around firefox screen when the normal mode. I have synced with another computer and I have no problem with each other.

    Hello lgm11, try turning off hardware acceleration and check again (in safe mode hardware, acceleration is disable).

  • Why Firefox type and slider are slow to a normal start, but everything works fine when I reboot in safe mode?

    When I open FIrefox normally, the movement of the cursor is very jerky - seems stuck on each link. In addition to typing in any box is delayed. When I restart with disabled modules and in safe mode, the cursor moves very well and typing is normal. I disabled all my Add - ons, but that doesn't seem to help as whenever I restart, the cursor jerky and delayed typing again. What's wrong?

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    In the Firefox Safe mode, these changes are effective:

    • all extensions are disabled
    • the default theme is used (no persona)
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored
    • the layout of the default toolbar is used
    • the JIT Javascript compiler is disabled
    • hardware acceleration is disabled
    • plugins are not affected
    • preferences are not affected
  • When Facebook, I can't click on "View all comments" unless in safe mode. Yet, when I am in normal mode and turn off everything, it still doesn't!

    When Facebook, by clicking on "View all comments" only works in safe mode. And yet, in normal mode, disabling all does not help. Why?

    URL of affected sites

    Nothing does seem strange. Try to clear your cache and cookies.

  • After updating Windows, causing KB981957 XP BSOD, C000021a Service Control Manager error at startup in safe and normal mode.

    After you apply this update, the system starts more (secure or normal) and gives the BSOD error above.  Manual removal of the patch Recovery Console fix the BSOD using batch spuninst.txt in the patch folder.  The affected system is an AMD Athlon 2400 + with 2 GB of RAM and XP SP3.  All other updates installs successfully.  I scanned viruses with Avast, Dr Web CureIt, ComboFix, Malwarebytes and TDSSKiller.  The system seems to work fine without the update.

    It seems to be a problem with the Win32k.sys file in the patch, but I ran out of utilities to solve this problem.

    Hello

    The solution is to report the problem, so the update can be set to not to do so. Microsoft
    may already be a fix, or work on it, or it could be a new problem. He
    There's even a phone number to make it easier.

    Certainly keep good backups that there could be an underlying hard disk or hardware
    issue.

    ========================================================

    Here is the solution for the coooo21A except use it when you can just get the fixed update
    is not the method I want to use.

    STOP: 0XC000021A

    Can be a difficult problem to solve, and you indeed need a technical help in a real store of the computer
    (not the leeks and the glances at a BestBuy or other BigBox stores) or system manufacturer support.

    Cause

    This error occurs when a subsystem of mode user, such as WinLogon or the Client Server Run-Time Subsystem (CSRSS), irremediably compromised and security can not be guaranteed. In response, the operating system goes into kernel mode. Microsoft Windows cannot run without WinLogon or CSRSS. Therefore, it is one of the rare cases where the failure of a user mode service can stop the system.

    Incompatible system files can also cause this error. This can happen if you restored your hard disk from a backup. Some backup programs may skip restoring system files which they determine are in use.

    Solve the problem

    Run the kernel debugger is not useful in this situation because the error occurred in a user mode process.

    Resolve an error in the user-mode device driver or system, third-party application service: Because the bug 0xC000021A control occurs in a user mode process, the most common culprits are third-party applications. If the error occurred after the installation of the new or updated device driver or service system, third-party applications, the new software should be removed or disabled. Contact the manufacturer of the software on a possible update.

    If the error occurs during the system startup, restart your computer, and then press F8 to character-based menu that displays the choice of operating system. In the WindowsAdvanced Options menu that results, select thelast known good Configuration option. This option is most effective when a pilot or a service is added at a time. If the error is not resolved, try to manually remove the offending software. If the system partition is formatted with the (FAT) file allocation table, use a MS-DOS boot disk to access the hard disk of the computer. If the system partition is formatted with the NTFS file system, you may be able to use Safe Mode to rename or remove the defective software. If the defective software is used as part of the start-up procedure of the system Safe Mode, you must start the computer by using the Recovery Console to access the file. If a room newly installed if material is suspected, remove it to see if that fixes the problem.

    Try running the emergency recovery disk (ERD) and allow the system to repair any errors that it detects.

    Solve a problem of file system do not match: If you have recently restored your hard disk from a backup, check if there is an updated version of the backup/restore program available from the manufacturer. Make sure that the latest Windows Service Pack is installed.

    It's my generic bluescreen convenience store - you can try Mode safe mode as suggested in article
    above - repeatedly press F8 that you start. Disks of Vista are probably necessary - if you do not try to repair it, you can borrow a friends because they are not protected against copying. You can also buy the physical disks
    good system machine cheap that you already own Windows (you have to reinstall them if)
    required). You can also repair disks on another computer.

    Here are a few ways to possibly fix the blue screen issue. If you could give the blue screen
    info that would help. Such as ITC and 4 others entered at the bottom left. And all others
    error information such as codes of STOP and info like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA and similar messages.

    As examples:

    BCCode: 116
    BCP1: 87BC9510
    BCP2: 8C013D80
    BCP3: 00000000
    BCP4: 00000002

    or in this format:

    Tcpip.sys - address blocking 0 x 0 00000000 000000000 DateStamp 0 x 000000000

    Hello Tensa_Zangetsu,

    Do you know what the exact when stop code it bluescreens?

    I was curious as to whether or not we can boot to Safe Mode command prompt only.

    If so, we can run the following command followed by the Enter key:

    CHKDSK C: /f

    This, until we do not get errors from her and then try to restart in Normal mode.

    If the Safe Mode command prompt only does not work, we can start the recovery console and run the same command:

  • After a system restore to a time before Windows XP, should I leave Safe Mode and restart normally? What other steps should I take in Mode safe?

    I ended up a sde.exe process, which stopped the pop-ups.  A full scan with Norton quarantine, JS.

    I restarted in Mode safe mode with networking and then restore.  I tried opening IE and Excel and that they work properly in Mode without failure.  They will work correctly when I leave Safe Mode and restart normally.  Should I test other specific applications.

    XP Home Security 2012 seems to have accessed or modified some files to DropBox (not sure how this program was installed, but it was already on).

    Should I delete all DropBox files, just those showing a modification date corresponding to the intrusion of XP Home Security 2012, or don't you worry about this?

    System Restore IS NOT the way to remove malware. The reason why you do not see the effects of the malware in safe mode is probably due to the fact that the process for most malware does not load in safe mode, and therefore not active.

    Restart the computer in Safe Mode with network. Click HERE. Download Malwarebytes. Update Malwarebytes and perform a full scan.  Choose to quarantine found nothing. Once completed click HERE and download Superantispyware Portable. Run a full scan quarantined found anything yet. Restart your computer in normal mode and perform a quick scan with Malwarebytes.

  • Computer is slow in normal and fast mode in safe mode

    I had this problem for over 2 weeks, the first thing I noticed was my screen was going black causeing me having to restart and often having to use safe mode to do anything, I also noticed very quickly in Web pages and very slow loading safe mode each time that I could get to use the regular mode.  I changed the hard drive using acronis to clone the old disk, I have my screen has changed three times, changed the cables, changed video cards, updated all drivers, added 1 GB of ram, 4 GB total, I use WinXP Pro, ATI Radeon X 700, Asus P5AD2-E Premium M/B I turned off AVG, I reset the Bios, updated and installed the latest version.  Is it possible to check the M/B for integrity?  That's all that's left to replace, I'm out of ideas.

    Sounds like you are infected if normal windows is slow. The scanner with antivirus

    Reconfigure you the BIOS after resetting?

  • When I started my computer this morning, it ran chkdsk at startup, windows startup it goes immediately to chkdsk, it will be repeated again and again. I can boot into safe mode, but if I try to start windows normally it runs chkdsk and does not start

    Windows does not start normally, just run chkdsk again and again

    First test the hard drive to make sure it's healthy. Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

    Boot with the CD that you have done and do a full test of the reader. The physical tests fail, replace it.

    If the hard drive then passes the physical tests, safe mode:
    Start > run > cmd [Enter]
    fsutil dirty query c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    This will tell you if the disc is dirty or not. Then always in cmd:

    chkntfs /x c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    This tells Windows not not to check this drive at startup. Reboot and it should go on the desktop. Once Windows loaded, run cmd and:

    Chkdsk /f /r c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    CHKDSK will run through all 5 steps. After that it's over, always in cmd:

    fsutil dirty query c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    to see that the dirty bit is not set on this drive.

  • How leaving the "safe" mode and return to 'Normal' Mode after changing?

    In Microsoft Vista, how to return to the normal mode to work in Mode safe?  I tried to leave by pressing F8 during the restart of the system.  I arrow down to the choice, but he always comes back in Mode safe.  (Story: I just got by technical problems after the installation of a wireless router.)  Everything now works in Safe Mode, but this mode is limited and I want to return to the Normal mode.  Help!

    I just found the answer by accident.  I went to the system configuration and on the 'general' tab, I changed the "Selective startup" selection in NORMAL STARTUP and it worked.  I hope this helps someone!
