Safe Mode is so fast!

So my video card hard locks my system within ten minutes of startup and has a date with an RMA as soon as I get in a cheapo temporary video card.

I'm booting into Safe Mode to see if the video card still locks up the system in here, and boy, is it fast 🙂

Firefox tabs from my previous browsing session (about 20) pop up and load instantaneously, boot-up is really quick, and programs load SOOOO much faster now. uTorrent used to take maybe 3 seconds to load, now it only takes 1 second. Windows Explorer with my 11 drives also loads instantly.

Yup 😛

It certainly does mine. 😀

lol, the lack of my monitor's native 1600x1200 resolution worries me.

Last time I tried Safe Mode, I couldn't go online, nor could I get audio from video. Otherwise I would probably boot from Safe Mode every time.

going online, you need to choose the second option, Safe mode with networking.

Yeah... there are three Safe Mode options:

Safe Mode
Safe Mode with Networking
Safe Mode with Command Prompt

Based on your skill with the caps lock and exclamation point, you still need to be kept offline.
