Holding down the *Ctrl* key while my computer reboots works for me......then
pick #3 for Safe Mode and go from there.

Not been exactly 100% here either, old sock!! Ctrl is all I have ever used.
At least now I know where the problem is with upgrading this
computer......so now I will just wait and get a new one.
I would rather have a nice holiday or two first. Not to mention I have
replaced the roof, and now have to do the same with the furnace. The damned
painter did the garage doors and disappeared.....but I didn't pay him. So
have to find another one to do the rest. Damned service people!! Ain't no
pride in their respective professions any more.
Ok....rant off.
Have fun, pussycat. You will get it worked out in due time. Think of the
learning experience you are having!!

There is an 'Official' (documented) MS method for WinMe - as per a search
for 'safe mode' in Help and
Support Centre will find - by holding down or 'stabbing at' the Ctrl or the
F8 keys.
A further couple of 'Unofficial' methods are by using the Shift key as
above, or when your machine is running in Normal Mode, run msconfig.exe and
on the General tab, select Advanced and check the 'Enable Startup Menu' box.
(Not forgetting to disable it when you've finished <g>)

You can hit F5 instead of F8 and go directly to Safe Mode. You can also run
"msconfig" and click on the Advanced tab, which gives you a box to check
which reads: "enable startup menu." If you do, every time you boot up, you
go to the option tab you would get with F8. Since neither F5 or F8 works
all the time for me, this is a viable option, but I don't use it.
