Cmoprehensive default Safe Mode service list (also driver and start-up info would be useful)?
When my PC starts in Safe Mode, "connect to a network" works. When I start in Standard Mode, it only sometimes works (usually it does not). This results in multiple restarts per each use of the PC.
What might be different between Safe Mode and Standard Mode such that "connect to a network" works? If you know, please help with that; otherwise, can we sniff it out by getting a comprehensive services listing and going through that into Standard
Mode one step at a time....
Hi,
Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs don't run in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7
Since this issue is gone in this mode, so some drivers or programs (might be installed recently, cause a bad effect) cause the issue, we can use elimination for troubleshooting.
Or we can return PC to a previous point at which your PC is functioning fine (but you will lose some recent configuration)

My MacBook Core 2 Duo will not boot up. In safe mode I see keychain problems and Mach 1102.
My MacBook Core 2 Duo will not boot up. In safe mode I see keychain problems and Mach 1102 and it keeps circling through the same error. Also the screen is so faint (pressing the F1 and F2 keys don't do anything). I got this from a friend and he didn't have any of the original discs. Any suggestions? From what I've read it's a problem with a recent update. I've never had a Mac so I'm trying to learn and fix it.
I just had an issue like this. I was able to boot up with an external firewire drive, although it was a lot of trouble. I think doing an option boot finally worked; holding down the option key, I eventually got to see the firewire drive was bootable, and booted from it.
I put the thing in verbose boot mode (command - v , I think; but please look it up. I have no Mac books at work to check). In verbose mode, you could see that the hard drive could not mount; the OS tried to do fsck, but it failed around 2/3 of the way, and the CPU was halted.
I was occasionally able to boot normally, but never in safe or single user modes; these do a disk test first, which invariably failed.
I could see from the system and console logs when I managed to get the firewire boot going that there were repeated errors trying to access drive s03, the internal SATA drive. The logs on the SATA drive showed huges numbers of errors. At a wild guess, for some reason a lot of sectors went bad all at once. There had been a some erratic behavior before, but I'd put that down to the single processor G5 problems. (these were non video related, just freezes).
Applecare wanted me to carry the huge thing into the local Apple store, but I persuaded them to just send me a replacment hard drive, which they did. The new one works perfectly.

How to disable safe mode on xperia z1,power and volume button doesn't work
How to disable safe mode on xperia z1,power and volume button doesn't work
Hi rafharum,
Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
A simple restart to the device would generally resolve this issue, however if the power key and Volume key are not working they may very well be causing the handset to execute safemode when ever you power the device on.
If this is the case, you will need to get the handset to a service agent for assessment. Please use the link below to contact Sony Mobile Customer Care directly.

I'm using Time Machine and a LaCie external drive to backup. I also have a 8 GB LaCie flash drive I want to use for small jobs. If I plug the LaCie flash drive in, is my Mac going to think it is the LaCie external drive and start trying to backup?
no.

Can you bring up the Profile Manager to create a new profile?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

Hello everyone how are you? Im having a problem as you can see with my 9850. One day i woke up and it wouldn't turn on, did battery pulls and still nothing. It was fully charged too. I connected it to the computer and updated it. During update error messages came up saying it couldnt connect to app loader. Eventually updating was complete. It booted up and stopped at about 60%-70% and stayed there for hours until it shut off by itself (probably the battery died). I did a batt pull and the same thing happened. i wiped the device with bbsak, reloaded the OS, and got the same result. Even the whole app loader error message came up again. Went to the forums to find a solution and tried opening in safe mode. Everytime i try to open in safe mode the phone shuts off and reboots. So now i have run out of options. Can someone please help me get my phone back up and running please. Id really appreciate it.
You might try again, wiping with BBSAK and again loading the OS fresh.

I have tried safe mode, all the options outlined here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can
This doesn't seem to be related to any particular site. When I try to access a web server running locally on my machine, I can see that the request is sent and the server responds as well. But the page will not render.
What I'm trying to do:
1. Open firefox, navigate somewhere (works)
2. Browse around
3. Seemingly at random, when clicking a link, it will stay in the state a:active and the new address will be displayed in the address bar, but page content will not be rendered (link still active, as I was holding the mouse button on it)
One site that it happens with, is http://fortumo.com
happens in safe mode, with or without addons and doesn't seem to be affected by the theme either.Anything unusual if you check the Net log or the Network tab in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer;Ctrl+Shift+K)?

Note that you need to reload the page (F5 or Ctrl+F5) to create/update the log. -

I've just used an external drive to back up my Mac with Time Machine. I have Lion, but didn't click and check the "Encrypt Backup Disc". What should I do? Can I delete the external drive and start again, or can I encrypt later?
I guess if stolen or lost it would protect my "stuff", and if I'm travelling would protect my privacy.
You must understand the purpose and implications of encryption before deciding whether to use it.
Encryption locks your data with a password. If you forget that password, the data is lost beyond any chance of recovery. Neither Apple nor anyone else will be able to help you recover that data if you don't know the password.
By the same token, the password must be strong enough to provide the security you want. For example, if you're the potential target of industrial espionage by a government or large corporation, you need the strongest possible password. To create and manage such a password safely is a task in itself, not to be undertaken lightly.
If you're only concerned about casual snooping by someone with no special skill, a weak, easily-remembered password is appropriate.
But regardless of the strength of the password, if you lose it, the data is gone forever.
Another point to remember is that if you encrypt your data on one storage device, you must also encrypt it on all other storage devices that would be accessible to the same attacker. Otherwise the data isn't protected. For example, if you keep your computer and your backup drive in the same room, and the internal drive of the computer is not encrypted, then there's no point in encrypting the backup drive. -

Very rarely, but nothing in life is guaranteed (except death and taxes)! If you purchased RAM from a reputable source like Crucial or OWC it will carry a lifetime warranty. -
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 - Safe mode not listed in Advanced boot options
HI all,
After a bad driver installation, the server got the blue screen issue.
I tried to access the safe mode and make a restore, but unfortunately the safe mode is not listed in the advanced boot options.
The only options available pressing F8 at boot are :
Repair
Normal mode
Am I missing something ?
Is there a way to launch the safe mode from the console (accessible from repair mode) ?
Is there a way to restore from the console ?
Thanks for your help, for now I am really stucked...
Olivier TisserandHi again
Problem solved, I document the solution for others :
open a console from repair mode
search the real system drive, instead of the X: default of the console
inn my case D:
cd Windows/system32
SystemHardwareProperties
Advanced options
start and recovery
tick the 'show os list' with 30 sec timer
close and reboot
when the system list appears, press F8 on wanted os
Then complete Advanced Boot Options menu appears, including safe mode
That saved my customer's server
Hope that helps...

Dead screen, laptop locked in Safe Mode with no HDMI driver for external monitor
Hi,
Background: This is a Windows 8 pre-loaded notebook, I have updated to 8.1 (some months ago) via the Store.
I recently had the dead screen that appears quite common with HP notebooks.
I connected an external monitor, notebook was fully functional.
Backed up all contents, then updated graphics driver, no improvement.
Then went into msconfig and forced boot into safe mode...
Now, I cannot control the notebook at all because I can't see anything. At this point I am just trying to get control of the notebook so I can wipe it, and sell it to a repair place, or as a notebook that works fine with a docking station or external monitor.
Questions I have:
1. WITHOUT SEEING THE SCREEN (dead) is there any way to get it to boot back to Windows Normal mode, or any other HDMI-driver enabled mode?
2. As an alternative is there any way I can get it to boot from a USB to any operating system so I can wipe the HDD and start again?
3. Would (2) even work if I need a HDMI driver to operate the notebook - would it be possible to reinstall an OS with a dead screen, because I would need to be able to run an external monitor?
4. How do I find my Windows Product Key without access to the notebook (can HP help here, from my notebook serial #)?
5. Any way to perhaps mount the HDD externally in order to manually edit the boot config to return it to Windows Normal booting?
Grateful for your comments. Remember my objective is NOT TO FIX IT, just to get it to drive an external monitor again so I can part with this notebook with some kind of financial return.
DomHi @Dom_Oz ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I see that your display quit and you connected an external monitor and it was functioning well. You backed up all your data and updated graphic drivers but there was no improvement. You booted into safe mode and now both screens are blank.
Since both screens are blank when you booted into safe mode, I would try a Performing a Hard Reset or Forced Reset.
to try and bring back the external monitor.
If that does not work, can could try to do a recovery Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8)
The Windows product key is tattooed in the bios and is hidden, but if you do a recovery it should automatically get picked up.
Yes you can try booting to an OS on a USB stick to wipe the hard drive.
Yes you can remove the hard drive and install it in an external case and then edit as you wish or format from there.
If you edit the boot config and manage to have Windows reboot, I would do a factory recovery, this will format the drive and return back to its original condition.
I hope this helps.

Following an automatic update, the machine wouldn't boot. Screen came on (shows white) - then either showed a 'No-Entry' Sign and a spinning cog, or a folder with a qusetion mark. I tried to start the machine in different modes ( eg. holding shift after the tone ) but nothing worked. after leaving the machine alone for 1 hour. It worked perfectly again. I did a 'verify disk' check which found no problems. 2 hours later it then froze ( In - Photoshop). Could not force quit, so shut down, and have not been able to boot again since (white lit screen - flashing folder with question mark) . I have also taken the hard drive out and checked the connections which seem fine. Any suggestions? - Is the Hard Drive dead. : other info : It was also running parallels 8, with Windows 7. at the time of the update....
