Picked up a brand new GIGABYTE GA-8IG1000MK 478 Intel 865G motherboard (pretty old but it will work for what I need it to do). I've installed Windows XP SP2. I can't for the life of me get into SAFE MODE. I've searched the net and as I thought I should press F8 during bootup. (By the way getting into BIOS required pressing the DEL key and not F1)I've tried everything to get into Safe mode. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

On my computer, it's F12 that you have to press. Try that. :)
