Windows XP does not normally do this on modern computers. The message was only used on older computers that used an AT power supply and thus had to be physically switched off. For this to show up on a modern computer, you would need to disable ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) and APM (Advanced Power Management) and reinstall Windows XP or replace its HAL driver in the Device Manager.

Note that disabling ACPI can make some hardware drivers not work correctly and make your computer use more electricity; it's generally not recommended that you do this.

Your computer will only boot to a black screen that says Start Windows normally and Start Windows safe mode ECT WHAT DO YOU DO TO GET PAST THIS Thanks?

If you contracted a virus, you'll need to enter safe mode to kill the virus. If you fooled with your computer settings, you'll need to repair the damange in safe mode. If you can't actually select either of these options, it just shows them, you'll need to install an anti-virus to kill the bug. If you get different results every time you turn on the computer, but never make it to windows, make sure your fans are working on your computer. It may be overheating. Make sure there are no floppies or CD-ROMs in your computer when you start.

Describe how to boot windows 98 in into safe mode?

Safe Mode is a way of allowing the user to access the Control Panel, Hardware Manager, and other portions of the Windows operating system so that changes can be made when the system is unstable. If the computer continually boots into safe mode, Windows may have to be re-installed. Usually, once the computer has booted to Safe Mode successfully, it can be shut down and restarted to boot into normal Windows operation. If the computer will only boot in Safe Mode, new hardware which has just been installed may need to be reconfigured in the Hardware Manager, or completely removed and reinstalled. Be sure that the proper drivers are loaded before connecting new hardware, as Windows may attempt to use drivers from its library which are not compatible with the hardware.


Changed resolution on your computer now monitor is blank?

You changed resolution to a mode that your monitor cannot handle.Restart in Safe Mode; to do this (in Windows), restart the computer, and press F8 before you see the windows logo. You may need to press it several times.You should get a menu, and one of the choices is "Boot computer in safe mode". Boot in safe mode, then once your computer is booted, change the resolution to 640x480, then shut down and reboot again (returning to normal mode). You can then set the resolution and colors back to where you want them (and where they work).
