Answer» Niezle = not bad? Niezle = not bad?That's it Quote i am logged in Safe Mode with networking and typing this messageIs this after running HD test, or....?i had done a repair install, and now i can log in using Safe Modeok i ran the drive scanner, and nothing bad came up i did an advanced scan and also the quick scan afterwards, i clicked on Drive info, and the S.M.A.R.T. status said GOOD and everything else seemed to look okDid you run HD diagnostic?yes i made a disk and booted my bad computer with itDid it run? Did it FIND any errors?like i said, nothing popped up yes i did the scan and everythingWhile in Safe Mode.... Go Start>Run (Start Search in Vista), type in: msconfig Click OK (hit Enter in Vista). Click on Startup tab. Click Disable all Click Services tab. Put checkmark in Hide all Microsoft services Click Disable all. Click OK. Restart computer in Normal Mode. NOTE. If you use different firewall, than Windows firewall, turn Windows firewall on, just for this test, since your regular firewall won't be running. If you use Windows firewall, you're fine. Were you able to boot into Normal Mode?did not work the same problems occurred, and i had to do the repair install but at least now i'm back on the computer ok i'm pretty certain that degragging my computer really messed it up it makes sense that files are missing or not found, and it can't load my accounts in normal mode is there any way to be certain of this? can i somehow undo a defrag?Defragging is highly unlikely reason for any computer problem. Go Start>Run ("Start Search" in Vista), type in: sfc /scannow Click OK (hit Enter in Vista). Have Windows CD/DVD handy. If System FILE Checker (sfc) will find any errors, it may ask you for the CD/DVD. If sfc won't find any errors in Windows XP, it'll simply quit, without any message. In Vista you will receive the following message: "Windows RESOURCE protection did not find any integrity violations". For Vista users ONLY: Navigate to C:\Windows\Logs\CBS folder. You'll see CBS.log file. Usually, it's pretty big file, so upload it here: http://www.flyupload.com/, and post download link. If you don't have Windows CD.... (this applies mostly to Windows XP, since Vista rarely requires use of its DVD while running "sfc") Note This method will not necessarily work as well, as when using Windows CD, because not always ALL system files are backed up on your hard drive. Also, backed up files may be corrupted as well. Go Start>Run, type in: regedit Click OK. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup You will see various entries (Values) on the right hand side. The one we want is called: SourcePath It probably has an entry pointing to your CD-ROM drive,(usually D:) and that is why it is asking for the XP CD. All we need to do is change it to: C: Now, double click the SourcePatch setting and a new box will pop up. Change the drive LETTER from your CD drive to your root drive, usually C: Close Registry Editor. Now restart your computer and try sfc /scannow again!it only flashes the command box very quickly nothing happensTry repair: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/How-to-repair-Windows-XP-t138.htmlumm i'm pretty sure i just did that i've been doing that this whole time just to be able to log on to WindowsI guess, your last option is to backup your data, and go for clean install, then. |
