Troubleshooting
Recognize and interpret the meaning of common error codes and
startup messages from the boot sequence, and identify steps to
correct the problems.
Safe Mode
Windows automatically initiates Safe Mode if it detects that system
startup failed , or if the registry is corrupted.
Safe
Mode bypasses startup files, including the registry, Config.sys,
Autoexec.bat, and the [Boot] and [386Enh] sections of System.ini,
and provides you with access to the Windows configuration files. You
can make any necessary configuration changes, and then restart
Windows normally.
Windows in Safe Mode, only the mouse, keyboard, and standard VGA
device drivers are loaded.
Safe
Mode With Networking is not supported in Windows 98.
Safe Mode Command Prompt Only loads the Command.com and
DoubleSpace or DriveSpace files (if present). It does not load
Himem.sys, Ifshlp.sys, or Windows .
Step-by-step Confirmation allows you to specify which commands
and drivers the system should process by confirming each line of the
startup files.
