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

It did turn out to be the network drivers.  I guess that was the obvious
place to start.  I uninstalled all the network drivers and rebooted and it
worked fine.  I reinstalled the Lan and wireless network drivers and it's
still working.  Problem is solved.

Thanks for everyone's help,
Toby
