How Do I Cancel ME Manual (F8) Boot-up by mnd4bsns2004
I used F8 to "interrupt" my computer's boot-up to get to safe mode to troubleshoot a ScanDisk problem. I've fixed that. Now how do I cancel the F8 manual "stop" that keeps happening every time? I want it to return to full "automatic" boot-up. Thanks! P.S. Windows ME on a HP Pavilion 8566C
