deleted a process now pc wont boot past the boot screen

Well my son did it, he decided that the pc was running too many processes and decided to delete some .. well he deleted one and didnt know which one it was ,. the pc said it had to shut down, now all he can do is boot as far as the boot screen and no further . is there any help or do we need to do a full reformat to fix this . or better yet can it be fixed at all ?

 

while your computer boot,hit repeatedly F8 button.When the screen of choices comes up select "last known good configuration" and hit enter 2 times.
Post what you've done.

 

If the previous tip from Goran.P doesn't make a change, try to boot with ur Windowd CD and repair the installation

 

No, dont even suggest this. Removing a process is registry related and not one damn thing in a repair install will bring it back. Same for starting/stopping/disabling services.


pacpis, once again, I implore you to read this.

This is the second time I’ve warned you. There will not be a third.

 

So,Adry you say that only reinstalling the Windows is the answer?

 

Not at all. Im saying a repair is the worst answer

LKG is the first thing I'd try too. Just waiting to hear back before I suggest anything else.

 

And lkg stand's for?

 

Last Known Good

 

You trick me.HAHAHAHAHA

 

Nah, just used to use the term so much, that we (people I worked with) started calling it LKG Been using it ever since.

 

Sorry for that Adrynalyne, but i haven't get that anywhere cause i tried it myself, i also have a process deleted but i did copied the same file in another pc and paste it in command prompt in Safe mode, unfortunely MzDonna don't know exactly the process that were deleted. I was just trying to give my point of view, so sorry if i made disorder

 

Deleting files is one thing, processes are registry entries, that call upon certain dlls for their functions.

Very different.
