Larry: Be warned that this method for getting into safe mode affected
the working of other programs when I tried it on my computer. I am sorry
that I do not remember which programs were affected but I believe I had
to re-install them to get them to work again.

Not sure if this can help here but there's a way to create a shortcut
to Safe Mode; I know it works in Windows 98.:
1. Right click your desktop and choose NewShortcut
2. In the command line enter: "WIN. COM /D: M" (sans quotes and note the
space between com and the forward slash)
3. Click Next and rename it "Safe Mode"
4. Click Finish.
5. Right click the new shortcut and go to Properties.
6. Click the Program tab, click the Advanced tab.
7. Put a checkmark next to "MS-DOS mode"
8. Remove the checkmark from "Warn before entering MS-DOS mode"
9. Click OK, OK
10. You can put the icon someplace in your Start menu.
11. Renaming it and changing the icon is optional.

I have been trying to start in safe mode and for some reason it just
goes to windows, like it or not. I go to startturnoff computerTurn off
then I turn the computer back on and when I see the first sign of light
on the screen I start hitting F8. It just goes to Windows. I am using a
Logitech wireless keyboard and I wonder if that makes a difference? It
has a F-Lock on it and I have tried it both ways, with the light out and
with the light on, no difference. I went to help on the computer and
their terminology is even different. They say Click Shut Down, well
there is no "shut down". ---
