  • Following a power failure, I can only open the pc in safe mode.

    The computer "sounds" as if he started, but after the opening of microsoft bar, startup screen, the screen goes black.  I was able to open in safe mode and have also booted from the dvd diagnostics.  There is no problems identified during diagnoses are made.

    In safe mode, the computer connects to the internet, but I am unable to download certain corrections in safe mode.

    This problem occurred shortly after the Windows Live Essentials update.  I can't remove the update.

    Try a restore in safe mode point.  That might solve your problem.

  • Windows 7 Build 7600 this copy of Windows is not genuine - I can only run the computer in safe mode

    My son - under Windows 7 Home Premium - Dec 2010 laptop, purchased at Future Shop

    It has worked well for the past 2 years.  Suddenly, on Saturday, he stopped doing anything.
    That's happened?
    I don't know, but when I started upwards, normally, all I get is the 'black screen of death", with the words"Windows 7 Build 7600 this copy of Windows is not genuine ".
    I CAN'T DO anything HERE - can't make a right click, left click, CTRL ALT DEL, menu button - nothing works

    So I rebooted in SafeMode with networking - everything works fine.

    I have tried many fixes - when I read the topics - but NONE OF THEIR WORK in safe MODE
    slui.exe 4?  Does not work in safe mode
    Run?  Does not work in safe mode
    Start - computer - properties - activate windows now?  Does not come to the top, in safe mode
    However, he won't come to the top with a status or product ID
    Starter - activate windows?  does not work in safe mode
    I tried to download the windows / microsoft / genuine / validate the tool - but guess what, that didn't work either - update installation failed - error information 0x8007043C - probably does not work in safe mode - but that's all I have As
    I did a system restore - it 'worked' but ran very slow - and then when I restarted, the problem came back.
    and many others

    I ran Avast free on it - and anti-octets Malware - nothing - but I can only run in safe mode.
    Avast has some programs that run on the system re - start - but it does not start in normal mode - if none of them work

    I read a lot of topics on this - and I'm VERY FRUSTRATED

    I used another laptop - does the slui.exe 4 - and he asks me the activation key?  I can't that - not in safe mode
    I called the phone number - and talked to anyone - they told me to go through the www.howtotell.com - and report a counterfeit copy.  But it's NOT a COUNTERFEIT copy.
    OK - it's perhaps - but why it worked for 1.5 years?  And I bought from FutureShop, so should be reliable.  And I have the certificate of Authenticity on the back

    Don't forget - I can't do anything either in normal mode - but the Safemode with network works perfectly well.

    So, I don't know what to do.

    I don't think that's my problem - I bought a genuine copy, a reliable retailer.
    Anything you can do to help, would be greatly appreciated.

    I agree with this assessment.

    Hard drives come with a large number of spare sectors 'invisible' - it's only when they all well used by repair mechanisms built-in to the reader that the number of bad sectors Windows begins to increase from zero (in your case, it is a sector) means that there is already a significant degradation of the drive, and you can expect the count to start sooner or later back.

  • I can only start my computer in Safe Mode - system hangs on startup after installation of updates

    Original title: UPDATES DOWNLOADED PROBLEMS to START NORMAL, MUST LOAD IN SAFE MODE - LOST AFTER 30-40 SECONDS VIDEO

    After the download and installation of updates on my desktop Gateway (FX7020) the computer freezes on me and was forced to shut down hard. After a few attempts to start the computer, I was able to get into safe mode. After some time in the exploration of the event viewer I tried out and re-start of normal BONE. I was unable to make it through the boot sequence and had to shut down hard again. I waited a while and it made back in safe mode, but this time after 25-40 sec. I lost the video, the mouse, the keyboard. Everything was running. I've read a few articles and I hope that I don't have a F... THE OS.

    Safe mode is not likely to help, and system restore.

    Your user profile is probably damaged and that Windows has created a new profile for you.  If you are looking into 'My Documents' or 'My images', your old files won't be there - they are in the old profile.  Do a search for your files.  If you find them, you can copy the entire profile.  See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151

    Or you can simply copy the desired specific files/folders.  You may need to 'own' the files to gain access to their--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421

  • Vista update last night, now I can not even do Windows or restore from safe mode.

    I have a Vista 64 bit machine.

    Last night my computer needed to install updates before shutting down, so I left it (as usual). This morning, when I turn my computer on it is stuck in a cycle of perpetual start-up. It restarts, concludes windows, gets a blue screen of death, reboots, etc etc. I disabled automatic reboot, so I could find the error message. It is a stop error message: 0x0000007E. I tried the analysis, through the prompt, the EFA one. It found errors but it unable to fix/replace.
    I can run my machine in safe mode. But I am unable to run a system restore. Using the option on the start menu, it gives an error message. If I use the suggested path since I was able to get the system restore to start via the command prompt. I tried several dates for a restoration of the system (the only thing that has happened to my machine in weeks is the installation of the update of mystery last night and windows update). The system restore is unable to complete. It comes up with the following error message: 0 x 80070057.
    I ran AVG and Malwarebytes. According to the two, which are updated, I do not suffer from any virus, spyware or anything. Now the only option that works in safe mode. Everything that involves repairs or last config of success (from the option menu F8 when reboot) just does enter the loop.
    Whenever I do windows an option, ask questions about the parameters name, workgroup and starting up my computer. I don't know if this affects what it is.
    Thanks to all those who might have a tip or two to throw my way. I'm about to pull out my hair.
