On system startup where you see your specs and memory amount, keep pressing F8 until you see a Microsoft Windows XP boot menu, something like this:

To use safe mode with Internet connection, choose "Safe Mode with Networking".

My Windows is in spanish so the description can be inaccurate.


Right click on My Computer and then Properties.
Click on Advanced Settings. You'll see 3 settings buttons. Click the last one below.
On the system startup group click the Edit button. Notepad starts.
Below the [operating systems] tag, there should be 2 or more operating systems listed. Delete them EXCEPT the one with /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn.
