Thankyou for assistance Bert.
I am not able to find the file spoken of in the first reference "To resolve this issue, use Windows Explorer or My Computer to delete the Wnbootng.sts file in the Windows folder, and then restart your computer" If you are able to tell me how to Ill try again. This may be the way to fix it : I have tried so many times in various ways to get my computor out of Safe Mode . -----Original Message----- Hi Peter, Windows 98 or Windows 95 Defaults to Safe Mode http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN- US;q143283 The Computer Always Starts in Safe Mode http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN- US;q306615 Troubleshooting Windows 98 Startup Problems http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN- US;q188867 How to Perform Clean-Boot Troubleshooting for Windows 98 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN- US;Q192926 -- Regards, Bert Kinney [MS-MVP DTS] http://dts-l.org/ How to Configure Outlook Express for Internet News: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=171164 "Peter" wrote my computor froze while in safe mode and required turning off by the switch which has resulted in permanent safe mode status.

Start up the machine with a boot disk. At the Prompt type below and press Enter after
each: cd c:\windows dir c:\windows /p **Note: the /p switch will move the screen one page at a time by pressing enter. If you also like to have it wide screen, then you can use the /w switch as well. Ex: dir c:\windows /p /w If you find the file type: del c:\windows\Wnbootng.sts **Note: make sure of the directory and filename before performing delete. Once finished in DOS, type: win to reboot to Windows -- Brian A. Jack of all trades, Master of none. One can never truly be a master as there is always more to learn. "peter" wrote in message ...
