Windows XP Home start up problems - Pllleeease help !!

[Guest]

Hi

I ran msconfig and chose the /SAFEBOOT (minimal) option under the BOOT.INI
tab. After I restart my machine, I get the initial WINDOWS XP logo screen but
after that I don't get the logon screen and the computer seems to hang. Can
somebody please tell me what went I wrong as I didn't manually edit the file?
What
can I do to rollback my changes to the msconfig during the boot up process ?

Thanks
PN

boot.ini.
