vista boot problem 2 Closed

Question

Hello,

Apparently I did not say please and thank you enough in the last message I posted, so I will try again.  Could you please advise me on the procedure in which I may be able to fix a problem on this laptop.  I would greatly appreciate the help.  I am having a problem with vista cycling between a black screen and the password screen in normal mode, but am able to use the laptop in safe mode.  Thank you for any help and hope that this supplies the proper respect and appreciation for the help.

Sincerely,

Me



Configuration: Windows Vista / Internet Explorer 7.0

Hello,

Try this 1.

1) When you switch ON your computer, start tapping the "F8" key to get

"Windows Advanced Options"( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep

tapping the F8 key)

2) Select "Safe Mode with Networking"

3) Click on Start --> In search box, type regedt32 and press Enter.

Registry Editor will be opened. Navigate to the following location

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

At the right side, find the strings shell & userinit and check the following

shell value data should be
Explorer.exe

userinit value data should be
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

If shell and userinit are having different data values then change it as mentioned

above.

Just double click shell and userinit and enter the data values as

shell --> "Value data" should be
Explorer.exe

userinit --> "Value data" should be
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

Note: there is "," at the end of userinit.exe

Then download "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" from the below link.

Update it and perform "Full Scan"

Note : Default selected option is "Quick Scan"

Good Luck.
