In reply to MikeZman's post on December 3, I've got a Windows 8 PC here that won't start normally, I tried pressing F8 like crazy, absolutely nothing, there really is no way to get into safe mode if you can't start your PC other than letting it start part of the way then chopping the power or pressing reset, sometimes then Windows 8 will start to try and repair itself and eventually give you the option of getting into safe mode.
