Want to add Safe Mode to your XP Boot Menu?

Here's how. First, right-click My Computer and click into Properties. Click Advanced. Under Start Up and Recovery, click the Settings button. Click Edit. The BOOT.INI file will open in Notepad. Copy this line:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

Paste the line you just copied after the original one. Change the second line from "Microsoft Windows XP Professional" to

“Windows XP Safe Mode” or something similar. At the end of this line add the following:

/safeboot:minimal /sos /bootlog Save the file by clicking File, then Save. Restart your computer and Safe Mode should be available at the boot menu.
