Default Can't get into SAFE Mode

It doesn't matter what motherboard I have. I am not the one with a
problem getting into safe mode.

What motherboard do you have? On my ASUS mobo I have to press F8 then F4
and then F8 quickly which brings up the safe mode options screen.

Phillips' instructions for checking SafeBoot in msconfig should work.
Once in Safe Mode, of course, you will then need to return to msconfig
to *un*check SafeBoot in order to return to Normal Mode.

news Friends,

I'm trying to boot Vista into SAFE mode and for some reason the F8
key doesn't work. Is there another way to invoke it? Boot from the
DVD media and then....?
