The operating system is a complexcomplex software, so there are cases when some components fail. Identifying the problem is often not so easy, especially an ordinary PC user.
Problems are much easier to learn ifboot the operating system in safe mode. The essence of it is reduced to a rather simple principle: the operating system loads only those services and programs that it needs to work, that is, some kind of basic set. Going into safe mode, it becomes much easier to diagnose certain problems. But you need to understand that the operating system will function with the optional video driver disabled, and this affects the appearance of the shell and may be unusual at first glance. So how is the boot in safe mode? Let's talk about it in this article.
Starting, the operating system allocatesthe default is a few seconds, during which you can use the hotkey, therefore, the download will start in safe mode. With the standard settings, which means, in the overwhelming majority, this key will be F8, located on the auxiliary keyboard. But at once we will make a reservation: to catch this moment from the first time it will be rather difficult. If you give it a symbol, it happens immediately after the BIOS performs all the tests, but before the operating system starts loading.
Загрузка в безопасном режиме совершается зачастую when the computer is infected with viruses, and there is no other way to get rid of it. I would like to mention a simple way to enter this mode: you need to open it via the Start menu - Run, enter "msconfig" in the opened field. You will be presented with a utility for setting up root services of the system and other important parameters, among which there is a check mark. If you install it, the safe mode will start automatically at the next reboot. As noted above, if the main problem that you are trying to get into this very mode is viruses, then we recommend not to use the msconfig utility, but enter when loading the OS.
Загрузка Windows в безопасном режиме была possible in version 98, it was executed by the same F8 key. This version of the operating system does not have a special utility; by setting its settings, you will automatically be able to get into Safe Mode, so using the hot key is the only option. Windows 2000 has a similar logon system.
In order to start downloading safemode in Windows XP, you should act in the same way as described above. After the BIOS finishes the calculation of RAM and the test of all nodes of the computer, press F8. If the first time did not work out, the loading of the OS began, do not despair, restart again. Going into this mode, you can diagnose computer problems that are easy to fix after detection. That's all. A fairly simple approach is to boot in safe mode.
