Thanks Can you reboot to normal Windows after the Safe Mode has finished, or is it permanently stuck there? If you can reboot to standard Windows, that is sorta kinda a standard feature. Though if it is on at the time of the power failure, usually Scandisk starts. You can try disabling/changing it via TweakUI. -- Sincerely, | (©) (©) | ------ooo--(_)--ooo------ Andrew H.

Though if it is on at the time of the power failure, usually Scandisk starts. You can try disabling/changing it via TweakUI. Check your MSDOS.SYS file under the [options]for the line BootSafe=1. If this entry exists, edit the file so that the entry reads BootSafe=0. The MSDOS.SYS file is a hidden, read-only file. You will need to change these attributes before you can edit the file. Use WordPad to edit the file. Do not change any other entries. |
