I'm trying to start my computer in safe mode, but when
the option comes up I press F8 and nothing happens. I
think its that my keyboard buttons might not be working
properly. Is there another way to start in Safe mode?
What am I doing wrong?
 
You could cheat a little, try clicking on Start, then
Run. Type in MSCONFIG and click on OK. Now click on the
BOOT.INI tab and your defaul OS should be highlighted. It
will probably be like multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

All you need to do is click on the /SAFEBOOT option, then
OK. Your PC should boot straight to Safe Mode. You will
need to change it back though if you want to go back into
Normal Mode so make sure you write down how to do it!
