I tried to boot my computer in safe mode, but it wouldn't load when I used f8 on start-up. I set the computer to automatically boot in safe mode, but now the computer does nothing. Neither of my monitors would get a signal, as though the computer were off. The computer ran fine when booted normally.

My PC:
CybertronPC Strike-GTX
 
Solution
Try this. Turn the power on and immediately begin mashing the F8 key repeatedly until you see the boot menu screen for safe mode. If that doesn't work, turn it off then back on and do the same thing but hold down the shift key while hitting the F8 key. If that doesn't work, your F8 key is broken or you don't have Legacy USB enabled in the BIOS which might be a good place to start actually. Go into the BIOS and make sure Legacy USB is enabled then try the above.
