Safe Mode
I have been unsble to log on in safe mode either using F-8
or the control button. I have been getting a lot of hang ups requiring re-booting and error windows saying explorer would shut down. I decided to download IE 6 and go back to IE 5. In the process I was offered the option of switching into Safe Mode which I did. The download did not complete and my computer is now locked in safe mode with limited graphics and colors. It is practically unusable. I use windows 98. I have tried everything I can think of to get out of safe mode. I have re-booted many times. I know there must be a way to get out of safe mode but I dont'n know it. Please help! |

Dear Rozie, Have you tried going to start up clicking on programmes - accessories - go to system tools and then system information - on the tools menu click System Config. Utility and on the Config. Sys tab click normal setup. Click OK and restart your computer. It should work. |
