How to go to safe mode with an USB keyboard?

Postby Emile » Thu Mar 20, 2003 6:51 am

Hello,
I run XP Pro SP1 P4 GF4 TI4600 with an USB keyboard , I want to goto safe mode to change some video card items, to go to safe mode you hit F8 when the system comes up BUT my USB keyboard is NOT up at that moment. :o
How can I go to safe mode with my USB keyboard? :-/

Found! ;D
During PC startup the USB keyboard and the mouse are active during a few seconds, the function key must be activated and you can do F8
