Activate vista in safe mode

Choose Restart to apply the changes when the System Configuration window pops up. Press the F4 key or number 4 key on your keyboard to enter Safe Mode. You can also press the corresponding key to enter Safe Mode with Command Prompt or with Networking depending on what you want to do. To start in safe mode Windows 7 and earlier : Turn on or restart your computer.

A menu will appear. You can then release the F8 key. Your computer will then boot in safe mode. You can also boot into safe mode from the sign-in screen if you cannot sign-in for some reason. All you have to do is click on the Power button at the bottom-right corner and then hold the shift key while clicking on the Restart button.

Continue holding the Shift key, until you see the computer Restarting. Some notebook and netbook models have the F12 Boot Menu disabled by default.

Boot into Safe Mode with F8 Restart your computer. As soon as your computer boots, press the F8 key repeatedly before the Windows logo appears. Step 5. Step 7. Step 8. Now restart the computer in safe mode and type the following command line on the command prompt run as administrator to finally start the Audio services in safe mode. You can now go ahead and play a songs in safe mode. After I restarted the computer in safe mode and clicked on the audio icon, the sound started working in safe mode on Windows 8.

Loved your instructions and followed them exactly UNTIL I tried to create a new key and a box popped up and said I did not have permission to do that. Dead end. Unfortunately your instructions I guess never envisioned such a roadblock. Now what?? Well Mr. Anonymous, If you are getting the permission error while editing, then you must take the ownership of the parent key before you create a new sub key under it.

If you do not see your username under the list of users then add your user name in the list first then a new Permission Entry window would pop-up, here Check the Allow Full Control box and Click OK.

I understand the instructions up until editing the Default key. Am I modifying that name? Because it wont be changed. Thank for commenting Jason, I have just corrected the article also to make it more clear.

And to answer your question- You are not modifying the name of Default key , you just need to set its value data to define its type for Driver key it would be 'Sound, video and game controllers' and for services it would be 'Service' as value data. Error is dependency service stopped or failure indication. You must be starting Audiosrv first.

Came seeking one solution, and stumbled upon the mother load to most of my setbacks. Thank you. You must not have added its driver in the same mode driver load list before running this command. What should i do? Everything works fine, just update the folder name from Minimal to Network. It will work like charms. It told me AudioEndpointBuilder has started successfully but it said right after system error occurred right after i typed start MMCS and said cannot be started in safe mode.

The audiosrv was started successfully. Where did I go wrong? Email vontana outlook. Did you run the command as administrator. Can you guide me step 8, thanks! Me too! I am null at tech stuff and you explained it so well. Just had a hard timet o find "run" under W10 but right-click mouse and found it to type "regedit". Thanks so much! Still NOT clear "under the same location?

Either way I tried them both to the letter and no sound at all. Lastest error is that MCCS could not be started on local computer or in safe mode. Plus at the end of your instructions there is nothing just reboot. Well when did that was asked about nothing? Watch this Youtube video How to enable sound in safe mode?

Re the device names, is it necessary to use the exact same name as appears in Device Manager? Or can i just enter any arbitrary name, eg "My-SD". And then use the name i entered in the 'net start' command, eg 'net start My-SD'. Best instructions ever! Normally, when I follow others' for things looking 'complex' such as this one , I hit a wall and being many times disappointed, I expected once again the same dead-end-not-solved-problem, but THANK YOU because this time it actually worked!

Thank you with with a big grin! Im using windows Im trying to become the owner of the SafeBoot key but i apparently don't have permissions for that. What do i do? Thank you for the video. If I expand it still only shows either on my desktop with just the desktop image showing on the TV or vice versa which makes it difficult to navigate as they are in different rooms.
