Quite Simple..

1. Restart the computer.

2. Tap F8 key repeatedly until you see the Advanced
Startup Menu.

3. In the Advanced Startup Menu, choose safe mode by
making use of arrow keys. Make sure safe mode option is
highlighted and press enter key.

** Safe mode is used for diagnostic purpose where in
minimal amount of the drivers gets loaded and for the same
reason most of the devices are not accessible in safe mode.

Safe mode is very handy when somebody has reset the graphics
to 2000x1700 at 120 Hz and the computer won't boot. Safe
mode is 800x600 at 60 Hz.

Gives you a chance to reset the graphics card.
