Hi,
                                  I tried the AIO repair and found no errors in general window scan.
                                     But i tried to run this in safemode and networking, the computer loaded some files, and stayed there for long time, informing me that it is not working or loading windows for some time. Normally safe mode itself would load without internet connectivity. But i tried one or two times, the above mode and it just stops at loading of some initial files in cmd prompt.
                                              Any idea what is wrong?

Are you using wired or wireless and have you ever been able to get Networking in Safe Mode ?

Sometimes Safe Mode doesn't load wireless in Safe Mode and you have to use a wired connection, although I've never had any problems on a  Win 7 laptop, but desktops could be different where Windows doesn't load the wireless card.

If you can get a wired connection in Safe Mode, go into Device Manager/Network adapters and right click on the wireless driver.

If the Enable link is active, click on that to see if wireless works then by disconnecting the wire.

Hi,  Thanks for the reply.
                          I could boot to the safe mode with net working  in msconfig and then making tick mark in safe mode and network buttons, where i found that it boots with minimum drivers, but with connection of internet possible.
                                 But the drawback is that i have to execute msconfig to again select normal mode before computer boots to normal mode everytime.
                                   subsidiary question: Why there was a alert in the program to use this mode for best result. I presume, that as it connects to the internet, solution could be checked by browsing helping help sites, if any thing happens .. Correct?

So you can force a connection by using msconfig but not when selecting that option in the Advanced Boot options ?

Can you answer if you are using wireless or wired and what you see in Device Manager when using the option from the Advanced Boot options - if the wireless adapter is in a disabled state or there are any yellow alerts ?

Hi,
                      I have not seen that , but the internet connection was on when i have chosen the option. Ofcourse, i have a wireless modem, which is connecting to wifi along with wired connection. I mean, the modem has wifi attached to it as a part of connection.
                              Should i do something on that to check. I will get back, by trying
edit: Now when i tried , it started without any problem with my modem which has wireless support. I am replying in safemode and network.
                              Would it have been a loading problem. It waited for please wait... screen for one hour and so  i wrote to the forum.? Thanks boggin. problem resolved. But my ancillary question.....
and also i should have checked the modem when the problem occurred, whether there was a proper connection or internet connection was established

What I would like you to do is to boot up into the Advanced Boot options, select Safe Mode with Networking to see if you get Networking while wired.

If you do, can you then go into Device Manager/View/Show hidden devices/Network adapters - check if the wireless adapter is enabled by right clicking on it and checking to see if the Enable or Disable link is active.

Also let me know if there are any yellow alerts and what against.

Just seen your Edit.

If you get connectivity okay in normal mode then the modem is fine.

It could well have been a loading problem and Event Viewer may have recorded something for that 1 hour wait which is excessive.

I'm not sure where it would be.

You would need to look for the date and time stamp for when it occurred.
