Default Removing driver under safe mode ??

Anyone tell me how you go about removing a device driver in safe mode ?? have tried removing a driver but everytime I try to do so the pc reboots itself, have been advised to try removing it under safe mode but not sure what / how you do this ??

It's possible but you'll need to either use Add/remove programs or going directly into Device manager and manually removing it.

To get into safe mode you will need to press the F8 key before you see the windows splash screen when powering up or rebooting. I.e if XP then this is the black screen with the Windows XP sign when it's starting up.
