I need to boot my Windows 7 64 bit PC into safe mode but cannot using the F8 key because that just brings up my RAID menu. I currently am running a RAID1 array off of 2 SSDs for the OS.

How can I boot into safe mode with this configuration?

Thanks.
 
You can try enabling "Safe boot" from msconfig, then uncheck it when you're done in Safe Mode.
 
OK that worked, but I didn't get the results that I was after.
I was able to boot into Safe Mode, perfect, but...

The reason I wanted to is even though Win 7 shows me as the Administrator, and I am the only user of this PC, for some reason Win 7 will not allow me to update or change certain Admin functions on my own PC. I found a tutorial that described how to fix this in Safe Mode, and even though I followed it to the letter, I still do not have full Admin access. As an example, I cannot make changes to the system Internet Time settings.

Any ideas?
