Enable Safe Mode
Starts Windows
®
with a minimal set of drivers and
services. If the computer starts and runs in Safe Mode,
you will know the Operating System is most likely
working properly and that you should look to third-party
applications or drivers for the source of your problem.
❖
Disable driver signature enforcement
Allows drivers containing improper signatures to be
installed
❖
Disable early-launch anti-malware protection
Allows drivers to initialize without being measured by the
Anti-malware driver
❖
Disable automatic restart on system failure

error causes it to fail. Choose this option only if
Windows
®
is stuck in a loop where it fails, attempts to
restart, and fails again repeatedly.
Internet problems
My Internet connection is very slow.
Many factors contribute to the speed with which you can
surf the Internet. They include: network speed, network
conditions, time of day (when everyone else is surfing, your
access can be slow) and popularity of the sites you are trying
to access. If accessing a particular site is very slow, try later.
My browser cannot find the URL address I typed in.
Make sure you separated the domain names of the address
with the forward slash (/). Check the spelling of each name
and the syntax of the address carefully. A single incorrect
letter or missed character will make it impossible for your
browser to locate the site.
My browser cannot find a site I bookmarked.
The World Wide Web is constantly changing. A site you
bookmarked yesterday may not be available today or its
server may be down for temporary repair. Try again later.
