    The 'need to know' info here is: what happened prior to the pc desiring safe mode over full OS boot?

    This can be caused by:

    - malfunction of a componant (graphic/sound card failure)

    - virus/worm/trojan infection

    - deleted or corrupted system files

    If you have no idea as to 'why' and you are able to access and use SYSTEM RESTORE, run it for a date prior to the problem. Otherwise, to me, it sounds very much likely that you've got a bug and windows is trying like hell to protect your data by blocking the bug from infecting your system further.

    The power switch method of shutting down the system (or yanking the power cord out -- same thing) will cause Windows to think something went drastically wrong that last time it was run (and it did) and default to wanting to start in Safe Mode again unless you change it when the boot options appear.

    Have you tried restarting or forcing it to shut down and booting again? Hold your power button in and count to 10 if you are having trouble shutting down.

Emachine password reset

  • Is this a Tower or Laptop computer >???????
  • Which operating system>??????
  • EMachines laptops run the Microsoft Windows operating system.
    Therefore, if you want to change the password you have set on your laptop, there is nothing specific you need to do with the laptop itself.

    Rather, the change simply needs to be made with the Windows operating system.
    Changing your password from time to time is a good idea if the laptop is in a location where others can easily access it.


    Turn on your eMachines computer.


    Press the "F8" key as your computer starts up. A screen called the "Windows Advanced Boot Options" menu will appear on your monitor.

    Highlight "Safe Mode."
    Tap "Enter" to start your computer in Safe Mode. Click "Start" and type "lusrmgr.msc" into the "Search" box.

    Press "Enter."
    Click "Local Users and Groups," then click "Users."

    Right-click the account for which you are resetting the password and choose "Set Password."
    Type the new password, then type it again to confirm it.

    Click "OK."

Virus blocking screen and demanding money

Restart computer or laptop. Press repeatedly F8 and choose Safe Mode with networking. Uninstall any other antivirus solution. Install AVAST - www.avast.com and Malwarebytes Anti Malware - http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_pro/. Update antivirus definitions on both of them. Run Malwarebytes and choose a full scan. After the scan is complete choose to remove all infections and the computer will restart. Start again in safe mode, choose Boot time SCAN from avast and restart computer. Delete all infected files - it will ask for your choice: 1- delete, 2 - delete all 3 ignore 4 ignore all etc. Post here the results. If in safe mode you cannot connect to internet download Malwarebytes in another computer and use a usb stick to copy to infected computer. When you will use usb stick in another computer again scan it !!!!

My laptop turns on but displayed black background & white cursor

I would boot in safe mode and attempt to run a scan for viruses or malware. That is what I would think the problem was
You could also do a system restore to before this problem started in safe mode. If you dont know how to get to safe mode google it. something like "Safe mode Windows Vista"

Laptop is stuck in safe mode Acer

I faced the same problem with my laptop. I tried several methods. But none of them worked. But finally when I tied the following procedure it worked.

The following instructions work on a computer running Windows XPmag-glass_10x10.gif only, this is assuming that your laptop has XP installed on it. Use this only if your computer wont come out of safe mode by restarting it.

Go to Start > Run and type "msconfig" in the dialog box that comes up. Press Enter or OK and the System Configuration Utility box should come up. Click on the "BOOT.INI" tab. Down in the bottom left corner of the window under where it says Boot Options there will be several checkboxes. Make sure that the /SAFEBOOT box DOES NOT have a check in the box. When it is unchecked restart your computer and you should be out of safe mode.
