I am NOT able to go into safe mode. It will not leave Welcome screen if Administrator is chosen and will not go if user is chosen. I have perfomed a chkdsk from dos prompt with no problems found. What could be the problem. HELP!

I'm having the same issue; windows automatically logs me off from the welcome screen. Aside from a variety of other attempted fixes (most of them stuff like system restore and the like) I tried the suggestions from ScinTex and koisidis. Neither worked.
In each case, when I typed the commands they both recommended, the system told me the appropriate file had been copied, but when I rebooted and checked, it didn't change anything. Anyone got any other suggestions before I just give up and get a new HD?
