Hello,

Here is my setup Host OS: XP SP3 Guest OS: XP SP3 (using VMWare)

I checked the /SAFEBOOT option in System Config utility in guest for troubleshooting. Now the guest OS boots up in Safe Mode but I cannot login with my user id/password.

Here is what I tried:

• [domainName]\[userid] for user name => Login Fails
• Administrator with blank password => Login fails
• Safe Mode with Networking => Login fails
• Safe Mode with Command Prompt => Login fails
• Last Known Good Configuration => starts in safe mode, login fails
• Start Windows Normally => starts in safe mode, login fails
• Don't have cd to get to the recovery console

Any ideas?
