Hi,

I am currently looking at a PC for one of my "dont care much for internet security" friends who has managed to get that somewhat hilarious Metropolitan Virus on his machine > not a problem, can rid the machine of this easy.

Problem is that when i try and boot in to SAFE MODE at start up, it just dives back to the boot up screen.

Without the original windows CD (which im reading doesnt always work anyway) how can i get the machine to load up in SAFE MODE?

Cheers in advance.

think i got lucky with this, ran Directory Services Restore Mode, it ran for about 2 seconds said all was fine and booted up into safe Mode :)

All from there was simple enough, through reg edit and blasted it, ran Malwarebytes software over it and all is now cool.

Cheers for the help folks,

CJ
