shyamal Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 helloi have a windows xp pro sp2usually when i start the computer in safemode, it starts up by asking me if i want to use safemode, or restore it to a previous state (system restore).Now, it doesnt even start safemode, but justs has the black screen, with the words "windows xpsp2..." and stuff at the top and bottom, and safemode on all corners...and stays that waywhat is wrong with it?is it a problem with any disabled services...or maybe enabled?anything to do with the hardware?

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 That *is* Safe Mode; however it appears to skip the selection menu that lets you boot into Safe Mode, Last Known Good Configuration, etc. Don't know how this could have disappeared.I do not understand "and stuff at the top and bottom"...?

shyamal Posted November 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 noit doesnt skip all thati press f8or i can go through msconfig and stuffbut what happens is that once safemode loads...since i have a workgroup or w/e i have to enter my username and password...same as normal...and it starts to load the safe mode...but just that it doesnt show the desktop or taskbar or anythingits a black screen with safemode written on all corners...and windows xpsp2 and stuff at the top...(ussually happens when it used to load b4)so what could be wrong...is it not loading my drivers or something to display the taskbar and allif itll help, i used safemode with command prompt...and that loads up and brings command promp...no taskbar and stuff but i dont think its supposed to have itmaybe its the drivers...how do i fix that?

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 There are various Safe Modes; one is Safe Mode with Command Prompt, which you can choose from the menu. Just type Exit to quit command prompt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
