I'm good at Trivial Pursuit, but I suck at computers, so
this may seem like a stupid question.
I upgraded from ME to XP [Home].
All went well. At least until.....
I tried to install drivers for a Brother HL1030 printer.
Couldn't get printer to work, so was following the
troubleshooting guide, and did some thing with a DOS
command that they suggested at some point in the process.
I didn't do it right, because I appear to have messed up
the spooler files in the register.
Have found all the articles on what to do to fix using
Register Edit.
But I have to re-boot in Safe Mode to do it.
And I cannot seem to find the way to do that.
I've followed the instructions in article from the MS
site on Safe Boot for XP, but all I get is a little blue
box asking if I want to re-boot from a floppy or the CD
or the HD. Doesn't say anything about the options they
tell me I should see - such as SAFEBOOT_OPTION=Minimal.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks.
