| 51655 | 2002-05-30 23:01:00 | I'm trying to completely remove all the drivers for a printer i'm having problems with. The problem is that when i try to go into safe mode, it gets most of the way in, until it displays the message about using safe mode and freezes. I cant do any thing except switch off the machine. Is there another way to get in to safe mode or a way to completely remove all the drivers for a printer? |

| 51656 | 2002-05-30 23:14:00 | Hi Mat Are you sure it is freezing? W2K takes an absolute age to boot into safe mode on my 3 boxes, much much longer than a normal boot so try giving it more time. Go and have a coffee or something as everybody knows the old saying 'a watched box never boots' (or was it a kettle never boots, or a box never boils? must be Friday, mind is going again!).
