Windows Protection Error - SafeMode

[mommacrow]

I get error message :

Err Msg: While Initializing Device CONFIGMG: Windows

Computer will not start in anything but Safe Mode. I can't seem to get either the Micron boot disk nor the download from Bootdisk.com to work.

Thanks for any help offered.

Welcome to CTH

1. Get it booted up in SAFE MODE then this may be a maybe fix:

2.Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click System.

3.In the System Properties dialog box, click the Device Manager tab.

4.Click the plus sign (+) next to System devices.

5.Double-click Advanced Power Management support.

6.On the Advanced Power Management support Properties dialog box, click the Settings tab.

7.Click to select the Force APM 1.0 mode check box, and then click OK.

8.Restart your computer in Normal mode.

I tried that but there is no ADVANCED MANAGEMENT tab. The following are the options available to me:

ACPI IRQ.....
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
Composite Power Source
Direct Memory access controller
Intel 82801 - 82810....
IO Read data port.......
Motherboard esources
Numeric data processor
PCI Bus
Plug and Play......
Process Support
Programmable interrupt ontroller
SCI IRQ used by ACPI bus
System Board
System Board extension for ACPI BIOS
System CMOS/real time clock
System Speaker
System Timer

Computer won't boot from the either Start-up Floppies (the one I made off the PC nor the one I downloaded from Bootdisk.com.

Also tried System File Checker - Ok there

Can't get into the CMOS to check out the Bios. I tried holding down the Delete key as manual instructed, but it doesn't work. Is there another way to access it?


Thanks
