Well this is what I see when I boot up the computer. Just a blinking DOS prompt after C:\windows\system32>

It is also in Safe Mode. 

I was trying to work around an issue that I was having booting up outside safe mode.  I must have clicked on something in the dialog boxes in start up and display that changed the way that I start up. I think it was something about alternate shell.   I just need to get BACK to normal safe mode out of this dos prompt.

Any help is appreciated.

The dialog box also says Version 6.0.6000

Thanks in advance I can not get into the system info to give you more about the system.

JOE Oh and I can still start task manager and can close the dialog box that is labeled

Administrator:cmd.exe

Thanks

MattOK I think I solved it. Forgive me as I am a complete novice at this. I USED the prompt msconfig and changed the settings back to what they were before.  I am still having problems with boot up and I will post that elsewhere.
Thanks
JoeLol, congrats?
