You probably have a worm or spyware running on your computer that can't run in safe mode.  It is very common for worms to disable use of features such as task manager, command prompt, and registry editor.  Try running spybot on your computer (see below).  Make sure you download all of the updates.  You should also make sure that your anti-virus software version (i.e. Norton 2006 instead of 2003) and definitions are up-to-date.  If you don't have anti-virus software, or it has expired, try AVG Free (see below).

If listed more than once, then 'end' each one of them.\n\n\nyour entire desktop will disapear now.\n\n\nnow, click 'file', 'new task (run)', then type 'explorer.exe' no quotes \n\nand it should come back as new. \n\nIf problem remains, then a group policy may be in force.\n\nHOPE THIS HELPS !\n\n-------------------------\nadditional info:\n\nIf your desktop is closing after only a few seconds, and there is NO error displayed, then it was killed on purpose...\nand I'm sorry to say you've been infected with a virus of some kind.  Take it to a professional for cleaning.\n\n:(

I had this and I think I went into Windows, then System 32, and selected Taskmgr and clicked on Run and that brought it back. Hope this helped.

To enable your task manager:\nGo to Start -> Run and type in 'regedit' (without quotes) and press enter.\nInside the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER&#92;Software&#92;Microsoft&#92;Windows&#92;CurrentVersion&#92;Policies&#92;System.\nFind and double click on DisableTaskMgr from the right hand side. \nMake sure its value data is 0 (that is to enable task manager).\n\nTo see the Run button:\nRight-click on the Start icon and select Properties.\nIf Start Menu is selected, choose Customize and go to the Advanced tab. Under Start menu items,  Scroll until you find Run Command. Check it. Press OK to exit.\nIf Classic Start Menu is selected, choose Customize and under Advanced Start menu Options, check "Display run". Press OK to exit.

I know of a way, but I woult not even bother to tell you that, unless to get points here.\n\nIts very dangerous to mess with those system files. You might screw up the system. It was a little safe with Windows 95/98 and the ME, but now with XP I never tried it but can expect results to be devastating if something goes wrong.\n\nhttp://www.theeldergeek.com/change_text_on_xp_start_button.htm

XP W/ SP 2 IS ACTUALLY (man, that's annoying) quite stable.  With problems like that I'd try reinstalling Windows--this'll give you a fresh install and wipe out stuff running in the background.  If same thing happens with fresh install you probably have a hardware problem.

The reason your system crashes is because you are using a bootleg XP version. If your system would it had a legit OS, you should been ok.

Restart the machine.\n\nIf it stills boots into safe mode, restart again and hit F8 a few times.  This will bring up the boot menu.  Select Normal

do you have enough system Memory to go around?\n\nAs in, what Operaing system do you have, and what amount of RAM do you have\n\nIf you have Windows XP, and only have 256 MB of system RAM, yeah youre going to lag\n\nHave you tried a disk cleanup?\nStart --> Programs -- Acessories --> System Tools --> Disk Cleanup\n\nThat will delete your temp files, maybe you just have too much of that.  Perhpas you have too many programs running at once or loading on startup.\n\nBut let us know what O.S. you have and how much system RAM you have

Windows XP does not have a "DOS mode" comparable to Windows 98 or earlier;  the closest thing it has is "safe mode - command prompt" which is available if you press the F8 key when windows is starting up.  (usually, you have to tap the F8 key rapidly.)

Make sure your account has "admin privelages". This is needed to install/uninstall any software using XP. Also, make sure your PC meets the minimum spec (it probably does because it's not power-hungry at all).\n\nTo log-in as an admin temporarily, startup in safe mode (change by pressing F4 at the boot), then select administrator at the welcome screen. Browse for the downloaded file and install it.

If Windows XP suddenly starts without warning, or restarts when you try to shut it down, it may be because your operating system is set to automatically restart when certain system errors occur. This feature of the Windows XP operating system can be disabled. Use the information below to disable the Automatically Restart option. \n\nResolve this issue by turning of the Automatically Restart option: \n\n1. Click Start, right-click My Computer and click Properties. \n2. Click the Advanced tab and select Settings in the Startup & Recovery section. \n3. Remove the check mark next to Automatically Restart under System Failure. \n4. Click OK to close the Startup and Recovery window and click OK to close the System Properties window. \n5. Restart the PC.\n\nThe PC will no longer restart automatically when a problem occurs. Instead a blue screen appears with more useful information. You can now search for a resolution using the text from the error.\n\nAfter you perform the above steps, check if the issue persists in "safe mode with Networking", scan for virus, get the BIOS update from the manufacturer.

Dont say what OS? Press F8 at start up and see if it does the same in safe mode. If you can log in run a virus check
