Hi
I have a PC RUNNING XP. It will not boot from start up and I can not get it to go to safe mode by pushing F8.
Any suggestions.
When I turn on PC it does say to select shft f10 but this only takes me to a a Realtek screen where I have a choice of 3 boot orders.
1. PnP/BEV(BBS) Boot ordered by BIOS, if BBS BIOS present
2.ROM Disable . Network boot disabled, boot local devices
3.Int 18h Boot the devices ordered in BIOS Setup

I do not have bootable CD but I have access to the INTERNET. Can I create a bootable CD perhaps from somewhere?
You'll find just about every KIND of boot cd here.

While you're thinking of boot cd's you might want to download the Ultimate Boot Disk from this site and add it to your recovery tool kit.

Good luck.Thank Dusty
Actually had the Ultimate Boot CD but unless the CDROM drive is read it doesnt work.
My problem is I couldnt even get the CDROM drive to read. And as I cant get into change the BIOS order I had no choice but to take it to a local Disk Doctor. That way I can at least get my hard drive accesed.
Thanks anyway.

Cheers
