I tried to upgrade windows from safe mode, now when system restarts to finish installation i get the following message:
"windows xp setup cannot run under safemode, setup will restart".
The only option to proceed is to press o.k. and go through the process again.

pressing F8 and using all options doesn't help, I still return to safe mode and the same message.

I tried to boot from XP cd but then windows sees i started upgrade process and havent finished, so i can choose to either
1. finish the the upgrade (which returns to safe mode...)
2. install new windows.
3. exit.
...no access to repair concole.

I'll appreciate any advice I can get.
Thanks
