Clean Boot in XP PRO

[Guest]

Remember how we used to be able to do a clean boot from a floppy disc to run
a game that was a memory hog? How do we do a clean boot in XP without all
the neccessary dragged out steps to shut down all applications...(closing out
of them from the systray doesnt always mean the program and its drivers are
turned off...

If anyone knows a fast way to do this eliminating the need for 2 or more
reboots to get there, pleasae share?
Thanks again folks.
