Comment:
What exactly is SPTD.SYS ? I have been told that it is a system32 file and that it is malware/spyware and some have been deleting it and then their safe mode boot pauses after the sys files load, but dont know if that is a coincidence. There are also stories of people getting the message: Press Esc to load SPTD.SYS during safe mode boot
Y'know, it's not that hard to find your own answers (instead of relying on "someone told me... ")
