[windows2000] Re: Can boot into safe mode but not safe mode with networking

Yes, it boots up into safe mode with Networking, but with the intermittent
freezing problem I mentioned in the previous email.  When I boot into plain
old safe mode the intermittent freezing problem does not occur.

I guess what I was trying to figure out is if there were any differences
between safe mode and safe mode with networking other than the obvious
difference of network drivers loading or not.  Does this behavior pinpoint
the problem to the network drivers?  That is what I am trying next, to
uninstall all the network and wireless networking drivers.

Thanks,
Toby
