Default Starting up Windows Xp in NORMAL mode

I changed my start up settings so that my PC would start up in safe mode, so
that I could fix a problem. I have now fixed the problem and want to resume
start up in NORMAL mode. I have hit F8 and managed to get into the start up
options but although I keep altering the settings for it to start in normal
mode, it still wont....can anyone help?!

Hi Cath,

In Safe Mode, click Start - Run and type MSCONFIG then press enter.

On the BOOT.INI tab, make sure the "/SAFEBOOT" option, is unchecked.

how did you set it to start in safe mode to begin with?
