    Is there a way to run safe mode in anything higher that 16Bit? I thought it might be easier to navigate if everything wasn't so huge.

    Many times in order to remove a piece of spyware or for troubleshooting and diagnostic purposes, you'll have to start Windows in Safe Mode. While in Safe Mode, only specific programs and files needed to run the operating system are loaded. Some functions, such as connecting to the Internet, will not be active in Safe Mode and a standard video driver will be loaded causing a washed out look and a possible change in resolution.

    So I dont think its possible to boot into Sfae Mode with anything higher than 16 bit.

    Yeah, I figured that it wouldn't work.

    I tried installing my own Video Driver while in safe but Windows would not accept it.

    Some functions, such as connecting to the Internet, will not be active in Safe Mode

    BTW if you boot into "Safe Mode With Networking" you can connect to the internet. So I thought there might be a way to load the proper driver to change the res.

    Thanks Blades :)
