Hi
Please refrain from using caps! looks like you are shouting.
You say that your machine is stuck in safe mode. when you boot does it go straight there?

  • Windows Stuck in Safe Mode - mouse won't work - need my data...

    New Mac User, well two months of trying to get it to opperate correctly. Unbelievable! I've re-installed XP SP2 too many times to count, finally had it up and thought it was running fine for the last week, then I went over to the Mac OS tried accessing windows through boot camp, it shut down the Mac OS, then when I tried to go back to boot windows directly, I received the damning <windows root> \system32\hal.dll file is missing or corrupt - again.
    I've gone through a bunch of posts, tried a number of the instructions, and now have a worse issue, my computer is now stuck in safe mode with Windows, by instructions, here, I'd disabled everything for start up in Configuration Utility and checked start up in safe mode there too, so now I can't get it out of it, and since my mouse and keyboard won't opperate in safe mode, I get to the log in page to select user but the mouse just won't move and pressing "CTRL ALTDLT" no response.
    In the Recovery Counsole when I rean CHKDSK /r this is what it came back with...
    "The volume appears to contain or or more unrecoverable problems."
    97638572 kilobytes total disk space.
    90877508 kilobytes are available.
    406 bytes in each allocation unit.
    24409643 total allocation units on disk.
    22719377 allocation units available on disk.
    So what does that mean? Not sure what the " volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable problems" means when it's not telling me what they could possibly be. Thoughts anyone?
    If anyone knows or has some good advice on how to get windows back up and running correctly, and without wiping out my data - as I can't get it backed up, I would be tremendously grateful...
    2 months of this is really enough, dying to use my system, and praying that I can...
    Thanks so much,
    Kitti

    Here's what worked: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330184
    I followed the instructions above and once I finished, After re-booting, I selected Microsoft Windows XP Professional and the System Configuration Utility came up.
    On the “General” tab, it shows that the Start Up Selection is on “Selective Startup” with everything checked, but what’s marked “Using Modified BOOT.INI
    Tried to change it to “Normal Startup – load all device drivers and services” then re-start.
    Windows came back up, but so did the System Configuration Utility and still showing that it was starting up with “Selective Startup”
    Now just need to figure out how to start it up in “Normal”, if in fact that’s possible. Will keep you posted and if anyone has any further suggestions, that would be much appreciated.
    I do hope this will help all the others that have run into the main issue, which I have found is caused by the Parallels Desktop by they way, not Microsoft, and that start having issues by getting the dreaded " hal.dll " file is missing or corrupt on a direct Boot to Windows.
    Very long and sleepless night….

  • Hp Pavillion windows 8 stuck in safe mode- no display

    My girlfriends pavillion notebook has the win 8.1 upgrade on it.  It came with win 8.  The display is broken and she has been using a monitor connected via the HDMI port.  She was having performance issues, freeze up, delayed response type stuff.  Bad enough I decided to restart in safe mode to work on it.  I did so without thinking about the HDMI port not being enabled in safe mode. It was actually a Safe mode/minimal restart. So now I can not get it out of safe mode because I have no display without the HDMI port.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I have tried a hard boot, where you take out the battery, disconnect everything and hold down the power button.  Though highly recommended several times she did not make a start up disc or recovery disc.

  • Stucked at Safe mode (windows 8.1)

    It's been 5 months that my Hp laptop stucked at safe mode.
    5 Months ago i tried to delete Eset Smart security from my laptop, the program said that the best way to do it is by Safe mode, so i reboot my laptop and then it asked for a password, so i enterd my normal password for every account i have, and it said it's
    incorrect.
    I tried tutorials of hacking into the laptop, tutorials of passwords recovers, not working.
    Because it's a safe mode, no network.
    I need a solution that will leave my data in my laptop, i have pictures, works, programs, important stuff.
    Please help.

    Hi,
    Which account did you choose when you logon Safe Mode? To uninstall Eset Smart, you can also uninstall it at normal mode.
    How about using system build in Administrator account to logon Safe mode? Have you tried yet?

    The display is broken and I was using a monitor connected thru the HDMI cable. I restarted the notebook in safe mode which I take it does not enable the HDMI port? So now I am stuck in safe mode with no display.

  • MacBook Pro- Stuck in safe mode!?

    Hi, I am a first-time MacBook user and need a little help...
    I am running lion software and recently performed a software update (pop-up screen general update). Since doing this, my Mac is now:
    - Only allowing me to type in Shift Mode i.e. I cannot type '1' but it types '!', '3' becomes '£', etc etc
    - Stuck in safe mode
    - Will not recognise any USB's (however i suspect this is because it's stuck in safe mode!)
    Any help would be much appreciated??? I cannot use it any more, and it makes me just want to get rid of it! :-(
    Thanks in advance....... :-)

    Try resetting the SMC - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 - see the drop-down menu on "Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own."
    Good luck,

  • How can i get my bookmarks back, after mozilla crashed and got stuck in safe mode?

    I was using mozilla as usual when suddenly it crashed and then my computer turned off. i restarted it and said it had gone into safe mode. i tried to restart the computer again but it was stuck on safe mode.
    The bad part is that all my bookmarks are gone and apparently there is no way of getting them back.

  • How do I get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

    I entered Safe Mode in my Envy TS 15 running windows 8.1 to fix some issues with my Norton software and now I can't figure out how to exit back to normal mode.  Internet is shut off in safe mode (even though I selected safe mode with networking) so I can run any of the Help & Support resolutions.  Anyone know how to do this?

    Nanna,

    Try / Consider
    Control Panel > icon view > Administrative Tools> System Configuration >
    Boot Tab > UNCHECKSafe Boot
    Restart/ Reboot the computer and log in
    OR
    Another path to the same place:
    ·         Start the notebook and let it start up in Safe Mode
    ·         Log in
    ·         Windows key + R(Opens the Run Window)
    ·         Type msconfig
    ·         Opens the System Configuration Menu > Click Boottab
    ·         REMOVE the tick next to Safe Boot > Applyto save
    ·         Restart/ Reboot the computer

    In addition, you might make sure your security router is set to
    Encryption type AES
    and
    Security type  WPA2-Personal

    For later, this is real useful to have and it is easy to set up.  I have done this.

  • Get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

    How do I get out of safe mode in windows 8.1

    Hi, 
    To get out of Safe Mode, you can try this: 
    Control Panel > icon view > Administrative Tools> System Configuration >
    Boot Tab > UNCHECK Safe Boot
    Then Restart. 
    If the you still fail to get out of safe mode, considering that corrupted drivers cause your issue: 
    Please open Device manager, and remove drivers about Video, audio, Network adapter, Bluetooth and additional USB device and try to reboot to see what's going on.

  • Why is Firefox running in Safe Mode in Windows Start, ever since updating to 6.0.2.4?

    just answer the question please...... and tell me why since upgrade approximately 2 weeks ago to 6.0.2.4, is Firefox running in Safe Mode and why? Also, my menu bar completely changed and all my menu preferences disappeared... WHY? The menu bar went to a weak Yahoo format, and basically ousted my Google home page. Why?

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
    * Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Menu+bar+is+missing
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    Do you get a Safe mode start window or is it only that the Firefox window looks different?

  • Help! I deleted all software from MyRIO and it's stuck in safe mode

    Hi,
    In the NI MAX interface I saw that there were a new software version to intall, in the section where is possible to add and remove software items to MyRIO from a list with checkboxes. The last option in that list was something like clear everything, remove all software, or other similar text. 
    I did this, planning to install the new software version after that. Then the MyRIO restarted in safe mode, whith the status led blinking three or four times  each 5 seconds. And it never was recognized again by the computer.
    I tried the reset button without success. The MyRIO is always stuck in safe mode.
    Then I tried communicate using the serial port of my computer configured according with the MyRIO User Guide, connecting the RX, TX and GND of the computer connector in the UART ports of the MXP A connector. But the NI MAX don't see the MyRIO, there is no answer in the serial communication. 
    How can I install the software again in MyRIO?
    Thanks in advanced.
    Regards,
    Rodrigo.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Today I managed to communicate with MyRIO and now its working again.
    The interface RS232<->UART using the IC MAX232 worked, but I could not install the software in MyRIO through this interface.
    Probably I uninstalled the NI software related with MyRIO from my Host computer, because when I connected the MyRIO using the USB interface to my other computer it was recognized and I installed the software in it without problems.
    Regards,
    Rodrigo.
