no safe mode by pressing f8 in startup/reboot or administrator signon
This is a discussion about no safe mode by pressing f8 in startup/reboot or administrator signon in the Everything New Technology category; Dear God stay away from 2. 6. 2 if you don't want problems with ALSA and KDE 3. 2!.
I have a problem in as much as i dont seem to have access to safe mode anymore since installing norton system works 2005 and reinstalling xp service pack 2, to cap it off i dont seem to have access to my main administartor signon - this may be due to not having access to safe mode.
i havent changed the password at all either.
I run xp home edition sp2.
Any ideas or feed back welcome, please help.
thanks in advance

if you are in search of resetting your admin password ... use this http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/bootdisk.html
If you feel that the safe boot option has been corrupted, you can always add switches to your boot.ini to force a safe mode boot using msconfig.exe (under the boot.ini tab)
