  1. Start the computer.
  2. After the computer runs the Power On Self Test (POST), press F8 repeatedly to open the Windows Advanced Options menu.
  3. On the Windows Advanced Options menu, use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode, and then press ENTER.
  4. Use the arrow keys to select the Windows operating system that you want to start, and then press ENTER.
  5. When the computer is running in safe mode, log on by using an account that has administrator rights and permissions. Then, click Yes in the message that states that Windows is running in safe mode.
Step 2: Start Registry Editor loadTOCNode(3, 'resolution'); Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK. Step 3: Remove the RESETS registry subkey loadTOCNode(3, 'resolution');
  1. In Registry Editor, expand My Computer, and then expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
  2. Expand SOFTWARE, and then expand Microsoft.
  3. Expand Windows NT, and then expand CurrentVersion.
  4. Expand Winlogon, and then expand Notify.
  5. Under Notify, right-click RESETS, and then click Delete.
  6. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the RESETS subkey.

  5. In the right pane (topic area) of Registry Editor, right-click OOBETimer, and then click Modify.
  6. Click to put the pointer in the Value data box. Then, modify any character that appears in the Value data box.

  2. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: expand drive :\i386\wpa.db_ %windir%\system32\wpa.dbl In this command, replace drive with the letter of the drive that contains the Windows CD.

    For example, if the Windows CD is located in drive D, the command appears as follows: expand d:\i386\wpa.db_ %windir%\system32\wpa.dblThis command extracts a copy of the Wpa.dbl file from the Windows CD. Then, it puts this file in the System32 folder of the Windows installation.

  4. In the results pane of the Search Results dialog box, right-click each file, and then click Delete.
  5. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the file.
  6. When you have finished removing these files, exit the Search Results dialog box.
  7. Restart the computer and let Windows restart in normal mode.
Step 9: Reactivate Windows loadTOCNode(3, 'resolution');
  1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Activate Windows.
