windows is unresponsive but works well in safe mode
- by kacalapy
I was installing a few utility apps and things when my laptop running windows 7 stopped responding. I tried to reboot and still very unresponsive... the mouse moves but i am unable to click on icons or open the start menu. eventually things catch up after over a minute.
when i start in safe mode with networking support i am able to operate the laptop at lightening speed and web browsing is a dream.
I ran msconfig and shut off all non windows services and still get the same thing. after no results i then got and ran spybot, malwarebytes, and other such tools but got no results. they all show nothing wrong.
now what?
