Windows XP professional, I was trying to delete a virus and followed the software instructions to reset msconfig to boot in safe mode. The computer is from my last job and I was supposed to have admin privilage, but it won't take my login and I don't know the Admin password, so I am stuck in safe mode. The IT person at my current job tried to do a repair and now I get "Windows XP setup cannot run in Safe Mode, rebooting". This is with no disks in the computer and I don't know how to get out of this loop. Any help is appreciated.
