i can't reach the 'safe mode' option in the boot menu. when i press f8 right
after start up i reach a menu looking like this:
____________________________
Boot Menu

Select a Boot First Device
Hard Disk
Click to expand...
CDROM
Click to expand...

NVIDIA Boot Agent
____________________________

sorry if this is a stupid question but i have been struggling to understand
what to do
cheers & thanks
 
Try this: Select Hard Disk, and then begin pressing F8. (And check the
documentation that came with your computer--some computers might have you
press F5 or some other key to access the safe mode options).

What problem do you have that requires safe mode to fix?
 
thanks a lot andy
it was enough to press f8 again after choosing the hard disk.
i had to fix the 0x80240029 error code in windows defender which seems to be
a common problem.
cheers
