Windows XP Professional starts in safe mode after the service pack 2 update
I have an older version of Windows XP version 1.0 on a computer in November 2001 of the gateway that I have updated all offers updates of material such as BIOS and motherboard. Then to the service pack 2 update so I can load an antivirus software which does not load unless you have SP2 or later version. It loads like a champ and restarts, but Windows does not start normally, I have to start in safe mode and remove SP2. Is there a driver error that I need to find? Or is there an other update I need before SP2 for such an old version of windows? (He also did the same thing with SP3). Help! I tried to reload Windows with the repair feature, but was lost when he gave me a prompt C:\.

I removed the personal information for your safety. As a general rule do not post personal information on this site as it is a public site.
A common cause of this is if the installation is not authentic in the first place often (unbeknownst to the owner).
To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag (download and save to the desktop -http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 ) tool
Once saved, run the tool.
Click on the button continue, which will produce the report.
To copy the report in your response, click the button copy in the tool (ignore the error at this stage), and then paste (using r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your response.Windows reports that not true:

Trend Micro update
If the information below does not help, contact Trend Micro because it is their product that caused the problem:
http://eSupport.trendmicro.com/default.aspx
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Restore point:
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:
Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.
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.
When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html
Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.
NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.
Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.
http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/
ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html
It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.
You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
It is NOT a disc of resettlement.
And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

Windows XP will only start in safe mode after Windows updated 09/02/2011
We have seven Windows XP SP3 computers. All are set to download/install automatic updates every day at 03:00. Today, one of them does not start in normal mode. When the user arrives at 08:30, screen was black and would not, if power to monitor and PC were in. The user powered PC turned off/on. He came normally too far that the screen blue, just before the login box appears, sucked to boot options. Boot in safe mode and safe mode with networking mode.

A suggestion: as stated above, I thought I was wrong this posted in the Windows 7 Forum. In fact, the link under XP for updates takes you to the Forum Windows 7 > Windows Update. It seems that it would be less confusing, if questions update go to a forum, out of Windows 7 and Windows Update as a stand-alone speaker.
Thank you for all your help,

After a clean install of windows xp family, with nothing but Pctools virus installed and disabled, Xp will only start in safe mode, all 3 choices, it does not start in Msconfig service diagnosis either. Eventvwr said service control module has failed. I tried to uncheck that service figure, but he said that the computer will not start if it is disabled. I uninstalled 3 times and reinstalled with the same results. A last one being a service pk 3 that I downloaded and installed in safe mode.
It has been installed and working before the clean install of windows with pk3. I removed the patration from the hard drive, write 000 to the dick and reformatted before clean install of xp. It will work with service pk 2 is installed.
I checked the forums and he Goggled and could not find a solution

You must install SP3 before you install your antivirus program. This can be done safely by downloading the file in advance and install while physically disconnected from the Internet. In addition, you should keep IE at the level before installing SP3 IE6.

Hello
I have a Dell laptop under Windows Vista Premium. I got it for about three years, and he is upset enough ok tonight. In the middle of browsing the internet, check my email, etc., all but one of my browser windows close at random, and a message appears "windows vista Security Center" whenever I try to open a new window, blocking of the site and to say that the site is dangerous and my system has been infiltrated by a Trojan horse. Then he starts the scan and says that I must buy the full to get everything to work again. I closed everything, since I already have McAfee antivirus and internet security, but it does not, and neither did any other progams. I tried restarting in safe mode to restore a backup point, but Windows does not open in safe mode, rather stick for half an hour in the middle of loading. When I managed to start windows in normal mode, I found that all my past restore points had been erased.
This happened to someone else, and it is fixable without wiping everything?
Thanks in advance,
EmmaHi Emma,
This could be due to a virus on your computer. Try to make a virus on your computer scan to check if your computer is infected.

PC Windows 7 does not start in safe mode after current updates
I have a HP pavilion dv8t-I7-windows edition laptop home premium. After a few updates auto windows, my pc would no longer start - got 'configure the custom for windows update desktop setting. I got the pc in safe mode and did a restore and pc worked fine. However windows last night did automatic updates again, and this morning same problem was back. However, this system time freezes everything trying to load all the drivers for safe mode - then now I can't do a restore. I noticed when I saw that windows wanted to restart for the new updates that half of the updates were for windows 10 House - I don't even have 10 windows on my laptop. Very frustrating that these 10 updates windows could be the cause of my pc becomes unusable.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hello
My apologies for the late reply.
I suggest you to fix your PC using a windows 7 installation media.
- Boot from the Windows 7 disc.
- Once you select your language, time settings and keyboard, click Next to load the next window, and then click repair your computer on the lower left corner of the window.
- You should then be presented with a screen to choose an Option , with Troubleshooting as an option to select.
- In Troubleshooting screen, select Advanced options.
- Select startup repair in the Advanced options screen, and then select the operating system to repair, target, which would be Windows 7 in this case.
Kind regards

How to join start in safe mode when the mouse does not work?
(I'm on another computer to ask this question). I'm in safe mode; mouse does not work; arrow keys work but don't go to 'start '. How to get started?
Assuming you have the office showing with all applications minimized or closed, Tab or F6 should pass the Start button and a few other "elements" on the taskbar. Look closely and you will see a light preview highlighting of the selected item. Press the Enter key to activate it.
In XP Safe Mode, the cycle is start button > Quick Launch toolbar > [of any application taskbar icon] > clock > desktop icons. While the Quick Launch toolbar is highlighted, the arrows move among the icons in the QL toolbar. While the desktop icon is highlighted, the arrow keys will be touring all the desktop icons.
