All,
My friend has a sony vaio with win me loaded on it. The problem is I can't get it to boot up, everytime I start it up, it will go through new hardware found, then after not finding the software for it, (it doesn't display what type of hardware) then I just get a screen, no safe mode or anything. How do I get it to start in safe mode? During startup I have tried pressing F8 and nothing, just sits and beeps at me like I'm an idiot. What to do?

Ok, fixed the problem. If anyone wants to know, first go to www.bootdisk.com and download the appropriate file. Then for win me, start in minimal boot, the run scanreg /restore and then rollback.
