CD-ROM Access in Safe Mode

Some people think that it is impossible to access CD-ROM while they are in the Windows Safe Mode. Well, they almost correct. The secret is: depress the CTRL key to access the Startup menu right before your PC begins booting up into Windows. Select 'Command Prompt Only,' type "win /d:m" (without the quotation marks) and then press ENTER. Now, Windows should start in Safe Mode with your CD-ROM drivers. However please notice that if you still can't access your CD-ROM drive, it means you need to install the real mode CD-ROM drivers.
