Guest Don Peardon Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Re: Safe Mode Reboot Thanks for the response. The event viewer doesn't give me anything I can see. Sometime I use the safe mode for removing software and an occasional bad file. I don't use safe mode that often but just wanted to see if there was something causing this that, I may have missed. Again thanks for the responses.

Guest John John Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Re: Safe Mode Reboot Re: Safe Mode Reboot I'm not sure why it hangs while booting to safe mode. I would take a look in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Minimal There might be something in there (incompatible driver, malware, rogue service) that is preventing Safe Mode from booting.
