How do i know it's safe mode? Well i am currently trying to fix this problem, which is basically making my "windows installer" go corrupt. I just need to run this file to fix it, but everytime i try to, it says "cannot run this file in safe mode".
I go to "msconfig" and i try to tick "normal startup" settings, but when i click apply, it GOES BACK TO selective startup ????
The picture below shows this.

When i try to disable some start up program, when i click "apply" it goes bak to default automatically. When i try to click "make boot settings permanant" as soon as i tick that box, it all goes back to default settings :S
PLEASE HELP ME :s:s:s:s
