Guest zerocool 10 Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I searched the other threads but didnt find anything on Not booting in safe mode but booting fine in normal mode and running without any problems. I ran both AVG free , AVG spyware free and Trojan Remover 661 , basically the system is clean , also ive got Windows Defener running in the back round btw i really think the HDD is bad because 1) it takes forever to shut done and once it restarts it OFTEN does that NTFS disk check and 2) System Mechanic Pro 7 said it was bad and ran a really long chkdsk
Guest Gerry Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Re: Win XP2 fails to boot in safe mode How exactly are you shuuting Down? A solution that often helps with a slow shutdown. Download and install the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service Download details: User Profile Hive Cleanup Service http://snipurl.com/5b61 UPHClean v1.5e readme.txt http://snipurl.com/ko8m System Mechanic can cause more problems than it solves. Please post copies of all Error and Warning Reports appearing in the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for the last boot. No Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate which also appear in a previous boot. You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important. HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308427/en-us Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you should double click for further information. You can copy using copy and paste. Often the link will, however, say there is no further information. http://go.microsoft.com/fw.link/events.asp (Please note the hyperlink above is for illustration purposes only) A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event Viewer. -- Hope this helps.
