Can't get windows to boot to safe mode, tried all three safe mode options but system just restatrts to the start up options page. If i select Normal then it starts fine. I want to do a complete check in safe mode.

Safe Mode
Safe Mode with networking
Safe mode with command prompt

I recently tried going to msconfig and set the "boot.ini" options to "safeboot". When I did that the computer looks like it is starting windows, I get a very brief blue screen and it it restarts the cycle. The blue screen is just a flash. not long enough to read anything.
I had to restore a ghost image to get back to some point of mormalcy.
Thanks

It goes thrugh the list of items it's loading and then restarts the computer and displays the start up options again
