Safe Mode XP - heavy artillery in the fight against viruses and system problems.

Once you notice that your computer has become very slow to work, it's self-reliant and arbitrarily rebooted or not loaded at all. The reasons can be very different. From problems with malware to hardware problems with overheating, hard disk or video adapter.

There is a fairly reliable way to determine the "nature" of the problem even for an ordinary user who is using computer technology on you. Loading a secure mode can be a way out of the problem situation. Due to the fact that Microsoft software is available even to the inexperienced, you, if you are a novice user, will easily and easily understand any of the most common problems. For example, you are quite capable of removing computer viruses. And now safely try to load the safe mode. XP is installed on many PCs as the primary operating system. According to many users and experts - this is the best that is developed by Microsoft. When the corporation tried in an agreement with the leading manufacturers to supply notebooks with Vista preinstalled, many paid significant sums to the skilled people, service engineers, because only those could install on the familiar Windows XP system.

So, let's return to our problem - a stationary PC or a laptop with XP is jamming. To do this, after POST-successful passing of testing (about this uninitiated in the meaning of this abbreviation will say "flashed" tablet) press F8. As a result, you see a menu of several items. Some of them offer the user to enter the safe mode XP. The most important for you

- safe mode,

- Safe mode with network support,

- Safe mode with command line support.

These are special modes for loading the operating system, providing for the launch of only vital services, system libraries and drivers. If after selecting, say, the third item, which is the standard XP safe mode, you will see the desktop with the corresponding ones with corners in a while - prepare that the system can boot up a bit slower than usual. And sometimes it does not boot at all, but this is a topic for a separate conversation. Booting in safe mode XP is also a fairly complex process, as you will have to go into more detail in technical details. If the system also produces a blue screen, the problematic subsystem may be a hard disk or a memory module. If the PC just hangs or reboots (the flashing cursor in the upper right corner), the problem can be of a software nature - some drivers are loaded for a long time.

If everything turned out - run a regular antivirus and check the system for malicious software that will be found and destroyed. Paradoxically, sometimes loading in the usual mode fails because of the low qualification of virus writers. Instead of "sitting" in the system and not detecting its presence at the same time while doing destructive activity (attacking sites as one of the botnet customers or collecting your passwords from online banking), such a grief application, due to errors in the code, hangs when Loading the car, discovering its presence. If you have the latest databases, the probability is high that after the anti-virus scanner is working, it will be restored. In addition, if possible, try to roll back the system to an earlier state (Start> All Programs> System Tools> System Restore). When it comes to changing the startup registry keys and system files, the command often helps> Warning! Common> Other actions> to restore work, but already in normal mode. This should be done already with the help of a qualified specialist. But it happens that the computer is not loaded, but it is necessary to work, moreover, moreover, with the network, and there is absolutely no extra time. Then download XP safe mode with Web support. Note that if you connect to the provider using a VPN connection, you will not be able to do this. But you can get access to other resources of computers through the folder> Sharing>. There is another possibility for quick recovery, which many do not even suspect is the download of the last successful configuration. Selecting this item in the menu on F8, sometimes you can avoid reinstalling the system, which is often fraught with loss of time and data.
