When putting computer on the message appears to continue
in one of four modes Normal, Safe , etc but recommending
Safe Mode. At the bottom of the screen also the options to
use F5 or Shift +F8.
Whatever option is choosen, on the next screen the
following message:
"Error of protecting Windows. Restart your computer.
System stopped."
Then it just freezes.
Can somebody please help?

Mike,

Try these:

A registry repair:

Boot from a startup disk and at the prompt type:

scanreg /fix (note the space between g and /)

Press enter, wait for the process to finish and reboot WITHOUT the disk.


If this doesn't work, try a registry restore:

Again, boot from a startup disk, and at the prompt type:

scanreg /restore (note the space between g and /)

Enter. Select a date prior to the problem and let the process finish.

Reboot WITHOUT the disk.

Any luck?

Hi Zee
Unfortunately I do not have a startup disk.
But Thanks anyway.
Mike

Mike,

You can download one from www.bootdisk.com.
