I am new to the (for me) advanced part of OS and hardware. I have read that XP can be started in fail safe mode if there are any problems. Now I wonder what it means to start the computer in fail safe mode.
Which are the typical reasons for starting in fail safe mode?
What does it mean and what happens when the OS is started like that (what is different from normal boot process)?
What should one be aware of when running the OS and fail safe is activated (will I end up in DOS and be forced to learn DOS-commands or anything else)?
How is it accomplished (keyboard keys)?
Hope you want to help me out here..
