safe mode
my sister computer is stuck in safe mode because the
power went out for a minute and that caused her sound card driver to split I think ESS Allegro is under others can she uninstall her driver and hopefully start windows in regular mode? It won't go in regular mode and install her sound card once she is in regular mode and able to use the internet? Also the CD-Rom doesn't work in safe mode so she can't use compaq recovery disk to intall the driver

Thank you I will let her know that. I read somewhere
that also if a driver didn't load up properly it could cause that. And her sound card drive doesn't seem to be were it is supposed to be. -----Original Message----- Windows 98 or Windows 95 Defaults to Safe Mode http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=143283 The Computer Always Starts in Safe Mode http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306615 -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "sue watters" wrote in message ... my sister computer is stuck in safe mode because the power went out for a minute and that caused her sound card driver to split I think ESS Allegro is under others can she uninstall her driver and hopefully start windows in regular mode?

Delete the sound card from Device Manager and let it reinstall--she will
probably need a driver for it. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "Sue Watters" wrote in message ...
