Starting your computer in Windows XP Safe Mode can help you diagnose and solve many serious problems, especially when starting normally is not possible.

If it states Yes, then you can use Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode in Windows 7, and should continue to the section where we learn how to install it. If it does not say Yes, then you will not be able to use Windows XP Mode on your computer. You can now close the Intel Processor Identification Utility. Safe Mode with Networking: This option loads the same processes as Safe Mode but also includes those that allow the networking functions in Windows 7 to work. You should choose this option if you think you might need to access the internet or your local network while troubleshooting in Safe Mode.

Not a Windows XP User? See How Do I Start Windows in Safe Mode? for specific instructions for your version of Windows.

Press F8 Before the Windows XP Splash Screen

To begin entering Windows XP Safe Mode, turn your PC on or restart it.

Just before the Windows XP splash screen shown above appears, press the F8 key to enter the Windows Advanced Options Menu.

Choose a Windows XP Safe Mode Option

You should now see the Windows Advanced Options Menu screen. If not, you may have missed the small window of opportunity to press F8 from Step 1 and Windows XP is probably now continuing to boot normally if it's able to. If this is the case, just restart your computer and try pressing F8 again.

Here you are presented with three variations of Windows XP Safe Mode you may enter:

• Safe Mode - This is the default option and is usually the best choice. This mode will load only the absolute minimum processes necessary to start Windows XP.
• Safe Mode with Networking - This option loads the same processes as Safe Mode but also includes those that allow the networking functions in Windows XP to work. This is valuable if you may need to access the Internet or your local network while troubleshooting in Safe Mode.
• Safe Mode with Command Prompt - This flavor of Safe Mode also loads a minimum set of processes but will allow access to Command Prompt. This is a valuable option if more advanced troubleshooting is necessary. This Windows XP Safe Mode option is a little different so check out the Windows XP Safe Mode with Command Prompt instructions for more information.

Using the arrow keys on your keyboard, highlight either the Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking option and press Enter.

Select the Operating System to Start

Before entering the Windows XP Safe Mode, Windows needs to know which operating system installation you would like to start. Most users only have a single Windows XP installation so the choice is typically clear.

Using your arrow keys, highlight the correct operating system and press Enter.

Wait for Windows XP Files to Load

The minimum system files necessary to run Windows XP will now load. Each file being loaded will be displayed on the screen.

You don't need to do anything here but this screen could provide a good place to start troubleshooting if your computer is experiencing very serious problems and Safe Mode won't completely load.

For example, if Safe Mode freezes on this screen, document the last Windows file being loaded and then search Lifewire or the rest of the internet for troubleshooting advice.

Login With an Administrator Account

To enter Windows XP Safe Mode, you must log on with an administrator account or an account that has administrator permissions.

On the PC displayed above, both our personal account, Tim, and the built-in administrator account, Administrator, have administrator privileges so either one could be used to enter Safe Mode.

If you're not sure if any of your personal accounts have administrator privileges, choose the Administrator account by clicking on it and then providing the password.

Not sure what the password is to the Administrator account? See How to Find the Windows Administrator Password for more information.

Proceed to Windows XP Safe Mode

When the 'Windows is running in safe mode' dialog box shown above appears, click on Yes to enter Safe Mode.

Make Necessary Changes in Windows XP Safe Mode

Entry into Windows XP Safe Mode should now be complete. Make any changes you need to make and then restart the computer. Assuming there are no remaining issues preventing it, the computer should boot to Windows XP normally after a restart.

As you can see in the screenshot above, it's very easy to identify if a Windows XP PC is in Safe Mode. The text 'Safe Mode' will always appear in each corner of the screen when in this special diagnostic mode of Windows XP.

In the previous article of this series, I discussed about the new features introduced by Microsoft in Windows Virtual PC. Now moving further in this article I’ll discuss the methodology of installing and using Windows XP Mode in an easy way without any clutters.

Setting up your Windows 7-based PC to run Windows XP Mode is a simple and straightforward process but first you have to check whether Windows Virtual PC is already installed on your computer or not.

Although Gomez sees it as a friendly deed of Normanmeyer, he stops him, revealing that the house is built on a swamp and could therefore not be used for a freeway. Wednesday, Pugsley and Thing dig through his room and find out he has recently been dumped by his girlfriend. Instead, the freeway is built on the Normanmeyer's land, much to their frustration. Meanwhile, Morticia reminds Gomez that he has failed in failing, and therefore succeeded in his plans.4a4a'Girlfriendstein'Story by: Earl Kress, Bill Matheny, and Lane Raichert; Teleplay by: Earl KressOctober 3, 1992 ( 1992-10-03)The family notices that Lurch has been somewhere else with his attention lately.

Installing & Setting up Windows XP Mode:

When installation of Windows XP Mode setup file is complete, go to All Programs and click on Windows XP Mode to begin the set-up of your Windows XP Mode environment. The set-up process for Windows XP Mode will take several minutes. During this time you be asked to accept the Windows XP License Agreement, as well as to create a new password and whether or not to receive Automatic Updates. Once the process is complete, you will see your new Windows XP Mode environment as a window on your Windows 7 desktop.

Some important considerations:

Working with virtualization technology is the fact that the user has both the physical and virtual PC to maintain. Every PC requires a degree of maintenance including but not limited to keeping the operating system and applications up to date with patches, virus and malware protection, and backup.

Windows XP Mode is pre-configured with the Windows XP firewall and to apply updates automatically from Windows Update. It is not pre-configured with anti-virus or anti-malware software, and both types of security software are recommended.

You can install and run applications within this Windows XP environment (known as Desktop Mode) exactly as if you were running them on a Windows XP-based PC. If you like, you can expand the Windows XP desktop to completely fill the screen (Full-Screen Desktop Mode) by clicking on the Maximize button in the upper right corner of the window.

When operating in Full-Screen Desktop Mode, you will notice that there is a small menu bar at the top of the desktop. This will enable you to access certain Virtual PC functions that we’ll talk about in the article.
