You can add Safeboot as an option to the normal XP boot screen
- Open a command prompt
- Copy the current c:\boot.ini to another name (just in case)
- With your favorite text editor, edit c:\boot.ini
- Copy then edit the current boot line to another line. For example:
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”Microsoft Windows XP Professional” /fastdetect
might copy and then change to:
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=”Microsoft Windows XP Professional Safeboot” /fastdetect
- Start MSCONFIG
- Click on the BOOT.INI tab
- Highlight the second line with the additional name of Safeboot
- Check the /SAFEBOOT box with option you want
Minimal – Minimal set of drivers
Network – With Network Support
Dsrepair – Directory Services Repair
Minimal (Alternate Shell) – Standard Explorer Desktop
- You will now have this option every time you start XP
