Thread: Stuck in safe mode

Hey everyone,
My problems has started a couple of hours ago. First, all of my folders unexpectedly became 'read-only', and then I was unable to install anything in the computer. I saw somewhere that to log on as admin in safe mode, and to take the ownership of the disks. I opened MSConfig, click boot.ini and checked the /SAFEBOOT option. My computer also crashes when it starts in safe mode. It gets to the login screen and crashes about 6 seconds later. No error messages, nothing is been displayed. Just crash and reboot? You can see where I'm going? Endless crash-reboot cycle. Is there anyhow that I can make windows start in normal mode, via windows start up? I can get to the selection screen where I can prefer safe mode, w/ networking, w/ command line, debug, log, last known config. I've tried all the safe modes and last known configuration, I don't know what the other things do.

Thanks.

I doubt that it is malware, I have Eset nod32, as well as AVG, and I do regular scan the computer. I recently checked with a tool provided by Microsoft, and confirmed that I do not have the 'conficker' virus. I have not found a virus in over a year. The only thing that is ever picked up in the scans by tracking the cookies, and other various things that I download and compile. I just have to figure out how to turn off the /safe boot option that I modified in msconfig. I forgot to mention, that my disk is encrypted, so I certainly run it into problems. I am decrypting it now, but I have to use a disk image, and it is going at less than 1 percent an hour, and should be done in about 3-4 more days. I am thinking about using NTFS4DOS to access the boot.ini file, and delete/modify the safe boot the setting, unless someone knows of an easier way for solving this.
