hi.. is there a way where you can make your computer always start in safe mode. I know the way where u have to press F8 but you need to press that every time. I need a way where it starts automatically...
thanks a lot

I don't think you can have it always load in safe mode. You can run msconfig and under advanced, you can have it always show that startup menu so you don't have to hit f8 and then select safe mode.

You can open up the c:\msdos.sys file and add the line:

bootsafe=1

To it.

Then your computer will always boot into safe mode.

See this article for more information:
