Should be the F8 key.

Thanks, Lisa & PD43 for your much-needed help. Job done. :-) (with

your help)

I think F5 while it's booting will take you right there instead of pressing

F8 and then having those options to go through. See what happenings when you

press F5 and tell me. I think that was a question on the exam in my PC

Troubleshooting class. Which key will take you directly to safe mode? I think

it was F5. Wait let me give it a shot on my Dell 8300, hold everything. BRB

No, F5 will give you all the options too. For ex. To start windows normally,

reboot, safe mode, safe mode with networkng, etc...

Ok, so we both learned something here, and great.

Thanks, attilathehun1
