This post will guide you how to boot your OS into safe mode. If you are not able to boot you machine into normal mode you need to boot safe mode and then troubleshoot any issues you encounter. Safe mode will bypass many normal windows settings and startup programs allowing you to fix OS. To get into SAFE mode press F8 key several times when your computer is booting. This will bring “Windows advanced options menu” and you will be able to select “Safe Mode”. Note that you`ll be presented with several Safe mode options:
“Safe Mode” – basic safe mode option, it has no additional support and is recommended in most cases.
“Safe Mode with Command Prompt” – advanced safe mode option with command line access.
“Safe Mode with Networking” – advanced safe mode option with network access. Very useful if you need to download new drivers or OS updates during troubleshoot process.
