No network when i go into safemode with networking.

[tommytinkroom]

Ive been meaning to get this sorted out for a while,so the problem is when i
go into safemode with networking i have the red cross on the internet icon
on the taskbar which tells me there's no internet connections.
Internet works fine in normal mode,i had a look in adaptor settings and it only shows
a vpn i use now and again which is disabled.
Thanks for any help with this problem.

What does the device manager say in safe mode at your end?

That's a bit of a vague question.

 

[tommytinkroom]

Can't anyone shed any light on this problem?

No software on my laptop will open that word doc,why not send it a more
friendly format like notepad.

 

[HarriePateman]

Because Notepad is limited, with pictures, styles and formats ECT..
I assume most people have Word on the PC. Here is a link to some free software witch allows you to view .docx extensions.

I have and all the free software that i tried to open your docs file with say it's corrupted.

 

[HarriePateman]

The file seems fine with me and other people.
Check the software your using allows,
.docx .wpd .wps .wps .xml
Please.
Oh and :roflmao:

and no yellow exclamation marks or red crosses.Internet adapters only shows the open
vpn i sometimes use, there is no lan adapter showing.

It's hard to believe that no one on this forum can offer me any help with this issue.
But it appears to be true.

Safe mode, even with networking, does not initially load wireless card drivers and therefore cannot be used to connect to a wireless network. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, there is an option to turn on wireless drivers while in safe mode.

So you are using a wired connection and it fails to connect? When you hover over the network icon in the system tray what does it say? This can help us determine if it is a service issue or a different issue regarding drivers or other related software.

Hi Josh,

It shows a red cross and says no internet connection and yes it's a wired connection.

Hi Josh,

Just a quick question, are you able to access Network and Sharing Center? Follow step 1 of this tutorial and let me know whether or not it launches:
