Hi...
Restart the computer, and press F8 "just before" the XP loading screen comes
up works for me. Another old trick that I don't know if it works with XP or
not, but which is easier if it does, is to just press and hold the shift key
during the entire computer startup sequence after a restart.

Hope that helps.
