  My laptop (Dell Inspiron; Windows Vista Home premium 32 bit) works on safe mode and safe mode with n/w mode. When I try to boot into normal mode, it comes to the screen asking my password. You can enter the password. Then, it loads the screen saver and freezes. I see a green circle turning. He never stops. I tried ctrl + alt + delete. It does not work. I did repair the system. No use. I tried the system restore. It shows a file as OS (C :) and another as recovery (x :). I chose the recovery (x :) as file control. He has worked and showed a message like system restore successfully in safe mode. But the normal mode of sill is freezing after the password screen.

• Can only use safe mode and can not access anything except firefox

  Basically, there are a few days all of a sudden, a box came up saying Windows Explorer has stopped working. No matter what I click, it returns constantly to the rear. Because I use firefox, I can't to anything except this, and I can't get him if I use safe mode.
  It is terribly annoying, I have 6000 + photos and other things I need, i.e. duties.
  How can I fix? I can't use the normal mode, and it's annoying.
  Thanks in advance.

  Then download your data either by:

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the target computer with a Bart PE (if you use XP) or a Linux live CD like Knoppix and retrieve the data in this way. General information about the use of Knoppix for this are:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with sufficient capacity to store your data, OR an external hard drive formatted USB FAT32 (not NTFS) *. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * My understanding is that you can now write on NTFS from Linux partition. If you wish to do this, Google for instructions on the use of the NTFS driver.

  Then do a restore clean factory/install of Windows.

  I want to emphasize that you should not take what I wrote as a definitive diagnosis. I can't see or test your computer from here. I give you my opinion on your computer based on my experience as a computer tech and what you have written. If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad).

• Windows xp is hijacked, and even in safe mode, I can not connect. My account has been disabled and I am the owner of the computer.

  It seems that someone else took the administrator account and he has rights that replace the mines on the computer.  Try to reinstall windows xp professional, it tells me nothing, but freezes...
  Try to connect to windows on my account, he tells me that my account is disabled.
  Try to connect through safe mode that come no user name.
  Trying to set up the administrator to log on without password, said that the account has been disabled.

  I am trying to reinstall the Windows XP Professional with the disc I have, but with this gel, I can't.
  I am very discouraged and would like this to be resolved.  I'm on another computer write because I can't even connect to the other.
  It won't do anything when trying to go to the last good known either.
  My copy of Microsoft security essentials would be not updated and I had restarted and can't get back in it is saying I had a Trojan horse and he removed twice, but he was still there.  If someone else gets this problem to not restart or you cannot recover.

  Reinstalling Windows can sometimes be a difficult process and most of the time that it is not even necessary to solve most of the problems.

  In case it is necessary to reinstall Windows XP Pro, it is imperative that you back up all your data first. did you?

  In addition, if a system is compromised or broken, a clean install should be made. This means that you must configure your motherboard BIOS to boot from the installation CD (instead of the usual default, which is the hard drive). The way to do this varies according to the brand and model of your PC.

  Assuming that you have the correct CD for your PC, these instructions should work for you:

  http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html

  http://michaelstevenstech.com/bios_manufacturer.htm

  If you want to help more away from us, please answer the following questions:

  1. What is the make, model and model number of your PC?

  2. assuming you have Windows XP Pro installed on it, what level SP is in?

  3. you have the XP Pro corresponding correct for her installation CD? In other words, if you have an OEM version, you must use a CD of the OEM version. Here again, a commercial version should work as long as it is not already in use elsewhere. What level of SP is the disc in?

  4. you say that you can not connect to Windows, yet you mention that MSE has given you a message. Please specify.

  Finally, once you're convinced that all your important files are backed up and if you want to try the Windows XP system restore (or other methods) before something as drastic as reinstalling Windows, we can give you advice. And then, if damage malware is really bad, it may not be worth it. But if you want to try, let know us.

• Tecra A9 came with Vista and XP, the disks - but can not activate XP

  Hello

  I have a Tecra A9, it came with Vista Business pre-installed and on a recovery disk. It also came with a XP Recovery disk.

  Part of the documentation in the box suggests that I should be able to simply install XP from the recovery disc. I tried this, but I can't activate XP. I called the number of Microsoft on the activation screens and entered all the numbers, but I then told me that there is an error and I should change my product key.

  My laptop on a a Vista product key stuck on the bottom. So, I seems to be a little stuck.

  The sheet that was in the box says:

  "it's additionall equipped with a Windows XP Professional Recovery DVD - ROM that allows you to easily install this operating system on your own. To do this, follow the instructions on the packaging of the DVD of restoration"

  Usefully, there is no instructions on the packaging of recovery DVDs, I expected maybe a XP product key or something... But clearly not.

  How should I proceed?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sorry, but I'm a little confused. As much as I know Toshiba recovery image should not be enabled and if you please be so kind and explains what exactly happens when you try to use recovery media?

  On what stage you must enter the product key?

• can open the home page but can not load other Web pages.

  I recently installed a network of a company of friends. They have a 8 computers on their network. To start connected the modem cable to router linksys n wireless and then I plugged an EZXS16W linksys 16 port switch. Everything works very well for about a month, until last week. Everything starts fine in the morning when they turn on all computers and continues for a few hours. After that, they can open their home pages (each computer has a differnet one) but when you try to view another web page, it can take up to 10 minutes, or never at all load. If I reboot the router and switch everything goes back to normal several hours then happen again. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

• I don't have a navigation bar and firefox does not open in safe mode to return to the default configuration. Does not work reinstall. Any help please.

  I have no navigation bar since I closed it to have more space on the screen. It will not re - open. Firefox does not open in safe mode, but immediately opens in normal mode with the new configuration incorrect, so I can't reset to default configuration. I deleted Firefox and re-installed and it always opens with the same faulty configuration. Why doesn't Firefox give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re - open the navigation bar, and how I can do those two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a navigation bar with no access to the default settings in safe mode. I can't search the extensions that I use since I have no navigation bar to go to tools, modules, Extensions.

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  I closed the navigation bar to make more space on the screen and I could not re - open.

  User Agent

  Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.4; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729 .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0)

  Press the Alt key to display the Menu bar, then open view > toolbars and select menu bar and the bar of Navigation, so that they have a check mark.

• Firefox opens in safe mode. Have reinstalled, tried resetting, updating plug-ins, rebooted computer... nothing works.

  I tried all the possible solutions, and it always opens in safe mode. Can someone please call me or HELP?

  As mentioned, you can get that back by following the instructions in the controls to customize Firefox, buttons and toolbars. You can learn tips and tricks at the same time.

• Able to boot normally to Windows 7 but can not start safe mode

  Hi, I have a laptop of Lenovo who has Windows 7 Home Premium installed on it.

  I had a few problems with not being able to see all the videos on CNN or the Weather Channel site, is not showing me any local report.  So I thought that I would try to start safe mode to make certain shortcomings.  (I can see videos very well elsewhere).  This happens on all 3 browsers I have (11 IE, Firefox and Chrome.

  However, after pressing F8 and get the option screen, once I chose the Mode safe mode (with or without network) it works the list of drivers and then darkens with only the arrow on the pointer in the center of the screen and stays like that for a long time without anything happening.

  I already ran all antivirus programs and spyware that I have, but nothing changes.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  If the problem persists, follow method 2

• When I restart and press f8 to go into safe mode, I can't scroll to the top I use the arrow keys, but she will not go up

  It shows the possibility to go in safe mode, but I can not just ride to select

  Try using the arrow keys on the numeric keypad (key '2' and '8'), but for those to work, your "Num Lock" must be disabled.  (Press the NumLock key, until the light Verr off Num).

  If this does not work and you are able to boot into normal mode, you can configure so that it starts in safe mode using "msconfig":
  Start-> Run-> "msconfig".
  Start msconfig, click on:
  Win.ini (tab)-> and then place a check mark in front of "/ SAFEBOOT"-> click on 'OK '.
  Restart your computer.
  He will then start safe mode.
