If Something Goes Wrong Windows Millennium Edition is not working 205 Logged (Bootlog.txt) Selecting Logged starts Windows Millennium Edition under normal conditions and creates a hidden startup log file named c:\Bootlog.txt. This file records every step of the system's startup process. You or a qualified Windows Millennium Edition expert can use this log file to check the loading and initializing of device drivers. DEFINITION: A device driver is a file that contains information to help the computer's BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) control the operation of devices connected to the system. Safe mode Selecting Safe mode bypasses basic start-up files and starts Windows Millennium Edition, enabling only the mouse, keyboard, and standard VGA display drivers. Running Safe mode allows you to undo any changes you made to the system configuration that may have caused Windows Millennium Edition or a device to fail. For example, if you choose a screen resolution that is not supported by the display, the operating system will have a problem starting correctly. Safe mode bypasses the setting and allows you to change the screen resolution to one supported by the display. Once you have done this, Windows Millennium Edition will start correctly.
