1.) First, boot into Safe Mode. After a reboot or two, you’ll probably be given that option, but if not, just tap the F8 key a few times once you see the Windows logo pop up on your screen. 2.) Once you're in Safe Mode, go to Start, Run and type in MSCONFIG Then visit MSCONFIG page for detail explanation on how to use MSCONFIG utility for Computer problem troubleshooting.
