Primarygun Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 What's the difference between safeboot,noguiboot, bootlog, basevideo, SOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postgrep Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Safeboot - Boot with devices at normal configuration, settings are set to default (I think) noguiboot-Boot with text only, and a shell. No gui. bootlog - log boot session basevideo - Default video settings I think SOS - I knew this one, forgot it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 is safeboot the same as safe mode? if so then its a Windows start-up option that loads the system with the minimum number of drivers and information Windows needs to run noguiboot is effectively like DOS, GUI = graphical user interface, so its a text based, line command OS. bootlog is used for diagnosing booting probs. SOS can refer to: a software Operating System Symbolic Operating System, Supportability Online System, System Operational Specification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5614 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 graphical user interface its like DOS is a text user interface because you type text, you get text windows is a GUI because everything is graphical, you see icons, see a mouse cursor, open window frames (like IE is a fram, the firewall is a frame, each program is in its own frame).

5614 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 safeboot = safe mode, general use to start windows when there's an error noguiboot = DOS mode, used when windows is beyond use bootlog = boot diagnostics basevideo = never come across that SOS = same as basevideo also with XP there's 'safe mode + networking', which is useful for last second emergancy back up over the network + internet use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarygun Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 I never use safemode as I am not very professional with commends. And I have no idea how network is very powerful, but I think that you are very powerful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 its spelt commands also, i know you are from hong kong, so i dont blame you, but saying "network is very powerful" is not a very good use of english, im not sure what you meant to say. really, i dont blame you, im rubbish with all languages! (except maybe english a bit!), so im just helping ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarygun Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 Oh, for that, I was too lazy. I was trying to say the function of " safe mode+ network" is very powerful. Thanks for telling me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 i guessed that was what you were saying although i wouldnt call safe mode + network very powerful because its not so powerful, its just useful... its not safe as you will have no security (firewalls or AVs) running, id say its only for emergancies.
