Hi. Even leaning on F8 doesn't do it. Is there a way for me to force a
safe mode boot on the next reboot?

I looked at msconfig and couldn't find a boot.ini tab.

Thanks,
Rob
 
If you can't get into safe mode by repeatedly pressing F8 during the early
part of the boot process, it's possible that your keyboard in not
initialized at that point. You have to either go into the bios and set it up
OR use a PS2 keyboard! They always work.
