Boot to the Recovery Console and use the BOOTCFG command to rebuild the boot.ini file. When you used msconfig and selected the safe mode option it added the /safeboot:minimal switch in the boot.ini file, you have to remove that switch.

I have been having a problem running a game and tech support for the game company suggested booting into safe mode to install. Here is where my problem starts. I don't have any problems using f8 to get to select to boot into safe mode. When I would select safe mode the computer would not boot into safe mode, it would get to the screen where safe mode is in all four corners of the screen and the system would go directly to selecting which user to log in to. No matter which user I select the computer would reboot into regular windows. So, I entered msconfig>boot.ini and checked safe mode. Since then I have been in a continuous reboot. How can I get out of this cycle?.
