SFC - Safe Mode

Greetings.
Got a PC with rather old Win XP SP3 installation. Out of blue, it keeps restarting on the system loading screen and now I can only get to Safe mode. I tried a bunch of things in
order to make Win work normally again, but so far no luck. Here is a list of what did NOT work:<o:p></o:p>
Scan for viruses/Trojans with Kaspersky Rescue CD (none found)
Chkdsk /f in Win installation disk Repair console
Fixboot in Win installation disk Repair console
Restore point (tried several of them)
Disabling all Startups via msconfig
My last hope was SFC command, but when I try to run it in Safe mode it keeps saying, that RPC server is not available (0x000006ba). Quick look at Services
shows, that there are 2 RPC services. Remote Procedure Call and its Locator. While RPC itself is running (net start rpcss confirms it), Locator do not want to start no matter what (error 1084: Service cant run in Safe mode). Setting it to Manual or Automatic,
using a different profile, setting an action in case of failure…literally nothing works.
Tried to edit several registry keys at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon,
like setting SFCDisable to 0 or adding SFCScan. Also tried solution with missing certificate "Issued To: No Liability Accepted, (c)97 VeriSign, Inc.",
but it IS presented, so no help either. Since SFC is not supported command in XP installation cd Repair console, I am really out of ideas now.
Win has few very special software installed, so clean reinstall is out of question and I keep Repair option as last thing to do, since it
managed to brake similar specialized programs on several occasions.
Any help/advice on how to make SFC run will be much appreciated.

  • Desktop stuck at black screen with cursor in normal mode but boots fine in safe mode after updates.

    After running some updates the other night my laptop stopped loading the desktop and just gets stuck at a black screen with a cursor after I log in to the user account. The only thing I can do from there is do ctrl+alt+delete, then log off or restart.
    I can't open up task manager. I tried creating another account in safe mode thinking there was an issue with the account but I still have the same issue. In event viewer I have two warnings one is
    event 6000 winlogon, The winlogon notification subscriber <GP Client> was unable to handle the notification event
    and event 4006, winlogon The windows logon process has failed to spawn a user application. Application name. Command line parameters: C:\Windows\system32\userinint.exe.
    As well as error event id 1003, CertificateServicesClient Certificate Services Client failed to invoke the Providers in response to event 512. Error code 2147956401
    and error 1001, certificate services client. certificate services client failed to load provider pautoenr.dll. error code 14001. I checked the registry and the path points to the right directory for userinit. I have tried running
    System Repair but no errors were found, and I ran sfc /scannow and no errors were found either. The computer did not have System Restore enabled and I do not want to restore to factory settings. I also ran registry mechanic and it found no errors. Any suggestions
    besides restoring to factory settings?

    Hi,
    We may try to reinstall Windows 7 Service Pack 1 for a test.
    In addition, let us perform the following steps.
    1. Click Start, Run, type lusrmgr.msc then ENTER.
    2. Select Groups in the left pane.
    3. Double-click Users in the right pane.
    4. Click Add, and then click Locations. Scroll to the top of the Locations dialog and select the local computer name, then click OK.
    5. In the Enter the object names to select field, type Interactive; Authenticated Users (separated by a semi-colon). Then click OK.
    6. Restart the computer.
    Or we can run the following commands from a command prompt:
    Net localgroup Users Interactive /add 
    Net localgroup Users "Authenticated Users" /add

  • How can I perform an "in-place upgrade" on an unbootable Windows 7 machine or at least rebuild Safe Mode?

    Some strange glitch has erased every single unlocked & unprotected file on my C: drive. It wasn't a virus because I checked autorun records and running processes using the respective Sysinternals utilities and didn't find anything suspicious.
    I restored all data except for some system files and files that had "too long" of a path using shadow copies, which luckily for me were just a few hours old. Then, I decided to reboot into Recovery Environment and run System Restore from there. For even
    more strange reason, the available restore points in RE were dated November 2010 (it's May 2012 right now) and the recent save dates are nowhere to be found.
    To make matters worse, SFC doesn't work and Safe Mode shows BSOD after loading CLASSPNP.SYS.
    Error messages so far:

    What I need is a way to perform either an in-place upgrade without booting into Windows, or a way to fix the SXS Component Store, or rebuild the Safe Mode so that I could initiate upgrade install from there. A clean install isn't an option because I don't
    have the luxury of time to run through the reboot cycles when re-installing and updating other software (I'm using Windows 8 CP for now as my work tools are mostly in the cloud).

    It is not possible to do a repair install of a system unless you can boot to the system.
    Have you checked the hard drive for problems? - download the manufacturer's test utility, create the disk, and run the extended checks.

  • Switch from safe mode to normal mode problem

    my comuter is stuck in safe mode , when start up i press f8 and try starting in normal mode but it still goes to safe mode . how can i fix that?

    Hi,
    First, please let me know if there is any program or updates installed before the issue occurs.
    You may take the following steps to test this issue:
    1. Boot the system using the “Last known good configuration”: 
    1). Turn on your machine
    2). Immediately begin tapping the F8 key repeatedly (If you get to the Windows startup screen start over)
    3). When the Startup Options menu comes up select “Last known good configuration”
    4). Let the computer attempt to boot into Windows
    If this successfully gets you booted into Vista you should be ok. Your system will function as it did before. If this does not get you booted into Vista
    normally we can try running the System File Scanner.
    2. System File Scanner
    1). Turn on your machine
    2). Immediately begin tapping the F8 key repeatedly (If you get to the Windows startup screen start over)
    3). When the Startup Options menu comes up select “Safe Mode with Command Prompt”
    4). At the command prompt type this command sfc /scannow
    5). Then press enter
    This utility will look for damaged or missing system files and attempt to correct the problem. When it finishes, it will tell you the results (example:
    SFC found and fixed problems). Restart your system normally. If you boot successfully into Vista, the problem should be solved. Let us know if either of these steps solve the problem.

    Sabrina

  • Why is it still so hard to get into safe mode?

    One of the worst features in Windows 8 is the many, many steps it takes to boot into safe mode... and it doesn't always get you there. And sadly, Microsoft has brought that into the Windows 10 preview.
    Let's be real for a second. Safe mode is a valuable tool for it techs, and can be helpful to the home user. Getting there is a friggin' nightmare in Windows 8, and it's no easier in windows 10. The UEFI bios and boot manager doesn't help either.
    Bring back a functioning F8 key, will ya?
    On another note, why the hell can't you boot from a linux-based cd and find the windows 8/10 based OS. Microsoft's virus removal tools are useless if you can't boot into Windows... and "refreshing" the drive also ONLY works if you can load the
    Operating system.Pulling the hard-drive to scan it for virus removal should not be necessary, but it seems to be with Windows 8, 8.1 and 10.

    Ran across this article after putting the 10 Tech Preview on my computer last week. Started off with build 9741 and now have 9879 and I just want to totally agree with the poster that Microsoft seems to have forgotten what safe mode is used for, mostly troubleshooting
    when something goes wrong and keeps our computers from booting. I stayed away from both 8 and 8.1 and have stayed with 7. So far the tech preview looks OK, and I like the return of the start menu as well as many other familiar Win 7 features and controls.
    But, even with 7, I've had endless hours wasted trying to fix the counterintuitive way that Microsoft seems to think (or not think) regarding these sort of issues. I'll gladly give up a couple (or even 30) seconds to have the option to boot into safe mode.
    I've fought with Microsoft over and over again about the way they keep trying to automate troubleshooting even when there are very simple manual fixes. Sometimes it seems like they want to just keep users from having the control we want over how our system
    works. And it this case it's just plain stupid that you can't choose to boot directly to safe mode by default from a preloading boot menu. Win 7 had terrible problems with "Bootmgr is missing" after even the simplest of issues such as adding files
    to a USB or just a bad defrag or user mistake. I spent hours pulling my hair out after such issues and eventually got myself into a hole because of the way Microsoft looked at the issue. 99% of the time I could have fixed my issue by being able to do a repair
    install from startup and it never made sense that you could only do an in place or "upgrade" install as they started calling it, If you can already boot into Windows. Lots of good that does when you can't get Windows to boot in the first place. And
    so far the Startup repair in Tech preview is just as useless as in Win 7. Except now it's even harder to get to. I played with it a bit to test it and just a simple thing like moving the bootmgr one file down in the directory or just adding 1 small file out
    of place was enough to make tech preview unbootable as well when using the older MBR setups. The new startup repair hasn't fixed it once. I don't know what the refresh really does as it doesnt work either. Gives a vague error with no link to a log and no other
    information provided , so dont know where to troubleshoot that one.  Win 7 's startup repair almost never worked for me until I learned the trick to run it at least 3 times with reboots and running SFC /offbootdir /offwindir in the middle. All of those
    problems could have been fixed by simply allowing us to boot from the install media to re-install without loosing data. I'm glad to see that at least for now you can do a repair install from boot in the current version of 10 Tech Prev. Please keep that for
    the later rollout, Microsoft. And stop messing with Safemode, please! I just made the edits to bcdedit to enable the legacy boot so I hope it works. I know it's still early but so far the Tech Preview has been a real challenge. I ran into issues on Win 7 with
    missing Vredist C++ files coming up missing after trying to get DirectX 10 to work. There is a stupid loophole there that Direct X will make you delete allx86 and x64 C++ runtimes that it doesn't like, in this case it wouldnt install with the
    2005 SP1 C++ redists. After I deleted them to install the Direct X I ran into a whole hell of an issue with corrupted files due to missing components from the  2005 redistribs that Win 7 would basically shutdown and slowly corrupt everything if
    any component of that package was missing and then would not allow you to reinstall them if your system was higher than XP yet would not fix corruptions until they were installed. I'm still trying to side fix my Win 7 installs on my other disks as I consitently
    cant get certain 2005 C++ redistribs to install. Now having big problems with massive corruptions in Tech Prev, to the point that it becomes totally non responsive and icons and folders almost totally go away in a very short period of time. DISM was
    pretty limited in Win 7 so I'm trying to get onto that but the commands are kind of confusing me and it doesn't work consistently and I thing the online store components are not being made available for repair as I get a lot of "failed to obtain image
    from provider" messages and it's giving me a lot of problems when I try to mount my iso as a wim file. Hate to say it but I've been working with 10 Tech preview on 2 computers (test out homegroup) and I've installed and reinstalled at least 5 times on
    each computer but within 30 minutes of a good install its corrupted again and Dism will stop working all together. Anyway, wish they'd stop messing with our tools. Bring back safemode by default guys.

  • Cannot create a system restore point [service cannot be started in Safe Mode (0x8007043c)]"

    Is there a solution to years old error message "Cannot create a system restore point [service cannot be started in Safe Mode (0x8007043c)]" I have been trying to create a restore point or image on an external hard drice, but I get the quoted message
    and the system is NOT in safe mode.  I have reviewed all the previous suggestions on this forum to no avail.  Are there any new suggestions.  My computer had Windows 7 installed and I have no source to re-load the OS.  Ralph

    Hi,
    So actually you're not in safe mode (not black background, no "safe mode" on the left-bottom of the screen), right?
    I think something is causing your PC thinking itself is in the safe mode, run sfc/scannow and chkdsk /f/r, check if the two tools can find any error.
    Or perform a startup repair in recovery console, check the result

  • T510, thinkpad display not present unless in safe mode

    Odd situation.
    The notebook display itself does not work in WIndows (Win7 64).  Boot to safe mode, BIOS, recovery etc it's there and works fine.  But partway through booting up in "normal" mode the notebook LCD goes blank.  
    An external LCD works fine.
    Going to graphics options, there is no option for the notebook display.  In device manager, and enabling display of disconnected devices the Thinkpad LCD does show up as a disconnected device.
    Again, booting to safe mode, BIOS setup or Thinkpad recovery the notebook LCD works just fine.  Just not in Windows 7 normal mode.
    Uninstalling the Intel video driver resolves this, reinstalling it brings the problem right back.  Also have installed the latest version directly from Intel's site to no avail.
    I should note that Fn-F7 brings up the menu, but changes nothing.

    Doing a factory restore fixed the problem, but now I have just heard about a customer that had the exact same problem occur. On the same model machine.
    Open a command prompt as administrator then run "sfc /scannow". If the issue is a corrupted system file this should fix it.
    From the MS support site:
    Some commands that you can run using Command Prompt might require elevated or administrative privileges. To run these commands, you can use the Run as administrator command.
    To run Command Prompt as an administrator
    Click the Start button .
    In the search box, type command prompt.
    In the list of results, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.  If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • Can't exit safe mode - Satellite A300

    Hello. Hope someone can help!
    My laptop goes into safe mode when I start it up and cannot get it to start back in normal mode. I have tried "Repair your computer" - doing a startup repair and a system restore, with no success.
    I ran cmd/sfc/scannow and the following message comes up: "Windows resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS.logwindir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:winddows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log"
    Will I need to do a complete PC restore or HDD recovery?
    I have made a recovery disk. Would programs that I have installed (e.g Microsoft Office) be saved on the recovery disk? If not how would I save this program (I have mislaid the installation disk)?.
    Many thanks in advance!!

    The same opinion here. Preinstalled OS is corrupted and best option for you is to install OS again using Toshiba recovery image.
    If you use recovery disc for OS installation the whole HDD will be formatted and before you do this backup all your important data.
    You have probably HDD option too (F8 > Repair my computer). In this case the partition C will be formatted only and all data saved on second partition will be safe.
    All additional applications youve installed in the past will be deleted so after OS installation you must install all this again.
    Bye

  • I tried to install latest OS update. Recd error installing. IT tried to load the upgrade in Safe Mode. Now system will not boot up. IT says I have to do a clean install which loses all data.

    After receiving an error when I try to install the latest update of OS-X, I took my laptop to oour schools IT dept. They tried to run the update in safe mode and then they got an error saying the system could not find the hard drive. Now they want to run a clean install which loses 1000's of docs and pictures. I have Block I exams in med school next Monday and all of my notes and slides are on that hard drive.
    The IT dept took the hard drive out and tried to back it up and they said they other computer could not connect or find my hard drive.
    Major panic....
    I have Norton antivirus and have never found any viruses on the system. I also have a program called ExamSoft which some other students here have noted they had similar crashes. Not sure if that is the issue...

    Several take home messages here:
    always back up before you update.
    always back up anything you don't want to lose. Kind of like flossing. Only floss the teeth you don't want to lose.
    Norton is very, very bad software, and you should get rid of it.
    You don't need antivirus software on your mac. Antivirus software on macs causes more trouble than it is worth.
    Your hard drive may be failing and thus may not be salvageable.
    You could try booting into the recovery partition and seeing if you can repair your hard drive.
    If that doesn't work, then there is a small chance that a third party utility (like Disk Warrior or TechTool) might be able to fix your drive (if it is not failing).
    If that doesn't work, you may be able to send your drive and a lot of cash to a drive recovery service and see if they can get your files off it.
    In the mean time, get notes and slides from a (smart) friend.

  • Mid 2009 Crashing but fine in Safe Mode

    Hello friendly support community,
    Having a little issue again with my mid 2009 Macbook Pro 2.53GHz intel core 2 duo system. Upgraded the system from 4gb to 8 gb about a month ago and everything has seemingly been running fine until today.
    - Shut down my system last night.
    - Went to power on this evening about an hr ago and I was stuck on the white Apple logo loading screen.-
    - Reset PRAM (reset 3 times in a row) and SMC ---- still stuck
    - Boot into safe mode--- worked then immediately restarted (via instructions from http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570)
    - Boot normaly (no longer stuck on white loading screen!)----- then immediate CRASH!!!
    - Back in safe mode now (which is working fine) to submit this Help Discussion
    Here is the panic report. Any ideas. I know that yesterday I updated the Evernote app from the Apple App Store and updated the definitions in the VirusBarrier App (also downloaded from the app store a while ago). Nothing more changed. Would really appreciate the help!

  • FireFox 4 Crashes When Started (Both Normal and Safe Mode)

    When I open up FireFox 4 (both in normal mode and safe mode) it crashes within a few seconds. It is a fresh install of FireFox 4 but I also have FireFox 3.6 installed as well. The report that was given is:

    1. You have a pre-release Beta 1 version of what will become Firefox 4 in like 5 or 6 months. Unless you are intending to test it for flaws and report those flaws to help in the development process, don't use it.
    2. Did you create a new Profile for 4.0b1, and are you using that Profile with it? ''That isn't done automatically when you install 4.0b1, and those of us who have been doing the "testing" for many years consider a new Profile as the basis of doing out testing.''
    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+Profiles]
    IMO, Mozilla is making a huge mistake by directly offering these beta versions to the general public.
    Also IMO. if you want to play with 4.0b1, use the Portable Firefox 4.0beta version to minimize any conflicts with a currently installed version of Firefox, and to eliminate the need for creating a new Profile for 4.0 Beta #:
    Download Firefox Portable Test to your hard drive and double click the '''FirefoxPortableTest_4.0_Beta_#_English.paf.exe''' file. The entire installation (including a new Profile for "Portable") will be self-contained in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\ folder and won't interfere with an "official" version that you already have installed. Your Profile will be in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\Data\profile\ folder.
    The "down side" is that Firefox Portable won't launch if any other version of Firefox is already running.

  • Blue Screen of death - now can't load Windows (even in safe mode)

    Last night laptop (Satellite L500 19Z; Win 7 64 bit) crashed whilst playing CIV4. Got a blue screen of death; before I had chance to read any of the error messages on it the machine rebooted.
    It loaded windows in safe mode fine then, and informed me as it had loaded safe mode OK the problem will be related to some recently installed software and I should uninstall programs I'd installed until it would load normally. As it was late last night I shut down and thought I'd sort it in the morning (in retrospect this may have been a mistake ....).
    Today, when the machine tries to boot up it attempts a Startup Repair; unfortunately this fails every time and it says "Startup repair has tried several times but still cannot detemine the cause of the problem"
    I looked at the log it produces but it passes all the individual tests.
    I also can't access the advanced options for system recovery & support, which appears on the Startup Repair dialog box as it demands I be logged in, which apparently I'm not (presumably as the machine never got to the windows login screen before trying the startup repair). The error message reads "you must be logged in to access system recovery options. If you are having trouble logging in please contact your computer administrator for assistance. please click OK to restart the computer."
    I've had a go at booting into the various advanced options (safe mode, safe mode with command prompt etc. but the outcome is the same).
    I also tried the Repair your Computer option from the advanced boot options screen, but after the screen where it asks you to choose the language and keyboard, I get the same login error mentioned above.
    Is there a way to repair or even run the hard disk based windows recovery (haven't got the recovery DVD with me as I'm away from home for a couple weeks) without logging into windows? I would have expected there to be but have yet to figure out how to do it.
    (there are no disks in the disk drive, no other devices attached to the laptop - I've tried it with mains power and with the battery and have not noticed any differences)
    Thanks

    Normaly the reinstall data is on a separate part on your HD, not in Windows.
    The register is only used for Windows.
    If it doesn't work you can always try to reinstall from a DVD later.
    It does mean all your data on C:\ will be gone. If you can hook your HD on an other PC you can try to safe your work with a recover prog.

  • I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either.

    I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either. Anyone have an idea as to what to do?

    I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

  • FF 15.0 on Windows 7 (64 bit) PC opens in Safe Mode but will NOT open after letting FF do reset procedure; now "stuck" in loop.

    1) FF 15.0.0.4619 on Windows PC 64 bit machine. No themes; about a dozen fairly standard plug-ins; a few extensions - fairly vanilla setup. Been having occassional problem this past week in viewing web PDFs.
    Crash occurred after some program (adobe ??) wanted to do routine update.
    2) Upon clicking FF icon pop up indicates "problem and unexpected crash" but clicking details button does NOT provide any info. Clicking on Restart FF button offers me option to Start in Safe Mode or Quit FF.
    3) Starts in Safe Mode and first time I did that FF reported Java as being disabled and NOT upto date. Did Java update/install (Java Platform SE 7 U7 10.7.2). FF still will not start except in Safe Mode.
    4) Re-booted computer ... Clicking FF icon brings up pop up with problem and crash sentence but no details. Following screen offers Reset to Default option, and upon clicking Reset it takes me back to the same pop up - so I am stuck in a loop that seems to accomplish nothing. Using Reset upon entering Sage Mode results in same loop.
    I really hate using IE so appreciate any assistance in getting back to beloved FF.
