Satellite A45-S150 starts windows - safe mode is not possible

My machine locked upward and when restarted, that asked me to make a selection among several options. Safe mode, safe mode network, prompt mode without failure, recent well known parameters and then just windows. It starts windows in these modes. Any help would be appreciated.

Brad

What to say Brad. It seems the full Windows XP operating system has crashed!
Believe me, something like what is happening simply and I think that it s nothing unusual to anyone who use and works with Windows OS for a long time.

You should definitely try to reinstall the OS from the Toshiba restore CD.
But this procedure will format your HARD drive and you will lose all files stored on the HARD drive.

But this is only one possibility to get Windows running on this laptop.

Check it out buddy!

  • Lost start menu / no. icons on bottom / cannot start in safe mode / can not use windows fix option

    After a restart of my computer I have more a start menu bar or icons on my background.  Things seem to work ok most of the time, but my pc hangs on the blue screen more than before.

    I tried to reset my computer to a previous point of reset but my help and support option does not work and when I use the option in the advanced start-up splash screen it appears that it nothing happens because I find myself with the same State of no start bar or the desktop icons.

    I also tried to start my computer in safe mode, but it hangs and never completes the operation.

    My computer came with an installation disk ever because he has been on a hidden HD (Dell 9200) partition but I can't access it because during startup, it hangs at the same place as my safe mode option blocks so I can't use the windows fix option.

    Can anyone think of anything I can do to fix this?  I got it to work by removing the file Explorer in my window of Task Manager running it again, but this seems to be a symptom of a larger problem because I get the blue screen.

    It is up to you and if you want to wait. You still need a hard disk physically viable well. Maybe you want to just wait and then break the RAID 0, treat readers as being separate and test with the diagnostic utility before installing Win7. You do a clean install anyway.

    I'm really happy with Win7. Just make sure you have the drivers for it. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Set to start in safe mode, will not light

    My computer was working normally, no problem, no virus. I was troubleshooting a wireless connection problem and decided to try the safe mode, boot in safe mode. I tried to restart my computer in SafeMode with F8, but this does not work, it's just booted normally. Then I put manually the configuration to restart in safe mode (system configuration > boot > safe mode). After the attempt to restart the computer, it starts, but never turned on, nothing appears on the monitor. I tried several times, nothing. I also checked the material, that is not the issue. Powers of computer, tries to start, but nothing ever appears on screen.

    Computer running Windows 7 Pro

    No idea what could cause this, or how to solve without a clean installation?

    Try a system repair disc to start.  If you have not done one for you, you can do it on another Windows 7 computer as long as it matches the number of bits of yours (32 vs 64)

    You need a blank CD recordable.  Start, all programs, Maintenance, on the other PC.

    Insert the CD into your computer and start your PC, you must make sure that the PC actually uses the CD.  Which may require you to get a boot menu to select the CD player to do the marketing.  There's a key (on a Dell computer it's F12) you need to press when your computer starts to prepare and presents the start menu.  It varies depending on the brand of the PC.  You should see on your start screen briefly as he begins to launch.

    Once you have started on this CD, it will offer alternatives to repair the computer.  The one to which you probably need is to restore to an earlier date.  It does no data, only programs.

  • 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?

  • Satelite A660 freezes at startup every time, but start in safe mode.

    The other day I was using my laptop normally when it froze. Nothing would work, so I stopped and have not been able to market normally since. It will start in safe mode but not in safe mode with network. If I try to boot normally it freezes right at the same time at the start of each time.

    I tried:
    -Select "repair your computer" when starting the
    -Restoration of the BIOS to the default settings
    -Disable start programs in safe mode
    -Restore the system to a previous date
    -Back to the last successful startup

    None of them work. It just freezes.

    I can't use the good conditions, not too computer savvy... I even tried to return the computer to factory settings, as recommended on the site of Toshiba, but when you press 0 a screen pops up that doesn't seem to have anything to do with the system restore?

    I am at a loss. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Everything you tried is right. It is not easy to say why you have this problem of gel, but I think that in this situation best solution is the installation of clean operating system (factory settings).
    In s user guides document explains how to do this. I put t know why don't you use 0 to start.
    Start with F8 laptop and use the option to fix my computer.

  • How to not show the windows in safe mode (pop-up), start in safe mode

    Firefox Safe mode

                 Safe Mode is a special mode of Firefox that can be used to troubleshoot issues.
                 Your add-ons and custom settings will be temporarily disabled. You can also Reset Firefox if you want to start fresh.

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -safe-mode  How to do it? Thanks
    

    There is a pref extensions.enabledAddons you can find on the topic: config page.

    One possibility would be to have two versions of a user.js file to initialize this pref with extensions installed and enabled and copy one you need by launching Firefox via a cmd file.
    If you are that tight on memory, then you only need to run a version at the time.

    It is Pref plugin.state to disable plugins in case you want to do the same, but plugins are used when you visit pages that use them and affecting all the plugins for "Ask to activate" should suffice.

  • After having upgraded to Firefox 24 it now won't start at all after clicking on the icon. My OS is Windows Vista premium. It will start in safe mode.

  • Re: Toshiba L305 Satellite 1) screen is messed up and only start in safe mode

    * HELP! *

    Windows starts only in safe mode or safe mode with network. My screen is messed up (black and gray with horizontal lines and the screen looks like it scrolls continuously).

    I connected the laptop to an external monitor and it still does not start normally and I need to recover contacts from my iphone from itunes.

    Is there something I can do? I really don't want to lose all my contacts! I have to remove the hard drive and it burst in another machine and try to start windows normally to have access to my current drive with all the data that is on it, but I don't know if it works or if it's a bad idea.

    What could be causing the screen get all dirtied upwards and at the same time windows does not start normally? I have never had a virus before problems!

    Help! Thanks :)

    Hello

    > Windows will only start in safe mode or safe mode with networking

    It seems that the bootmanger is corrupt or something like this

    > I really don't want to lose all my contacts!

    I know, I Safe mode, you have access to all data on the hard drive. So, you can move all the important data on USB or on the partition (if available) 2 nd on your hard drive and you don't need to remove the hard drive
    Then you can reinstall Windows with a recovery disc or by using the disk copy of Win. This is the best solution in your case, try to fix windows can take a lot of time as a new installation.

  • I have windows xp after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode

    I have windows XP after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode?

    Hello

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         What happens when you try to start in normal mode?

    Method 1

    Windows XP can in every start Safe Mode by default. Even if you select the option Start Windows normally, it always starts in Mode without failure. IOW, you can't get out of safe mode.

    This happens if the switch/SafeBoot is added to the Boot.ini file. / SafeBoot parameter forces a boot in safe mode by using the specified parameters. The available parameters are:

    (a) minimal

    (b) network

    (c) safeboot: minimal (alternateshell)

    For more information about the boot.ini switches, see visualization and correction of the settings of the boot on x 86 systems

    RESOLUTION

    (a) click Start, run and type MSCONFIG

    (b) click the Boot.ini tab

    (c) If you have a dual-boot system, select the entry that is appropriate under the [operating systems]

    (d) in section downstairs, Startup Options uncheck / hisFEBOOT

    (e) click OK

    (f) restart Windows

    The entry/SafeBoot are removed from the Boot.ini file.

    Method 2:

    If the above method is not the cause, it seems that Service Pack 3 is not installed correctly.

    Step 1: You try to run the system restore from safe mode that will repair return the computer to the point while it was working fine.

  • Window XP professinal machine crashed and does not even not start in safe mode.

    I installed "Spybot Search and Destroy" on my Windows XP Professional machine and started the application. Received a notice of bubble that the hard drive is nearly full, and then the computer froze. Did a hard reboot and went normally up until the point when the login screen appears normally then the screen went black and nothing worked except the mouse. Do you have another hard reboot and tried to start in windows safe mode. Once again, everything is going well until the point windows should have arisen screen then black again, except this time it says xp professional SP2 safe mode window. Or something simila across the top and the bottom of the screen. I don't have my original XP disc and have no idea of what would be the product key. The computer was purchased from a former employer, at the time of the purchase by them, it was a machine under windows 2000 and they have upgraded later to XP, most likely on the internet, so no XP cd. What are my options on the recovery of XP. And if that is not possible with the lack of information do you think I can upgrade the computer to Windows 7 or should I install original version. I know that the hard drive is good because I have another old machine windows 2000 can I put the hard drive in and it will read and write from the hard drive. Problem is you can't see half of the car becase the formatting of the file is different. a majority of the data I want to save the hard drive is on the side, that I don't see in the old machine.

    Joe,

    first put your hard drive of the computer that you have questions with in the computer that works well. delete or move data from the old hard drive to the other disk to free up space make sure you have about 5 GB minimum FREE on the old hard drive. Also run a virus scan and spyware on this hard drive. Then try to start the player of ard again and see if you can return to windows.

    Good luck! Please rate me upward if you find my post helpful. Thank you!
