Booting In Safe Mode

Post by AmaD »

Ok, this may seem like hte simplist *sp* thing ever, but I'm sure how I can do this. I start up my computer, but at no time it asks me what mode I wish to start it in. Can anyone tell me how I can achieve this?

Thanks, I did it the manual way, by restarting while windows was loading :wink:
