Hi All,

I need to get to the Enable VGA mode when I boot the computer, since I never
made it with F8 then I set up the save mode via the MsConfig and then when
re-boot windows goes into save mode. But this time I need to see several
options before I go further and choose if it save mode Enable VGA etc..

I am using Windows XP SP2 and Pentium 4, 3.6 GHZ cpu.

Which option set it up in the Boot.ini table in the MsConfig?

Thanks,

Doron

The /basevideo switch in boot.ini forces 640x480 VGA mode.
