Another method to change the timeout is to run msconfig, select the Boot
tab, and enter the timeout there. Whatever you can do, so can a tweaker
or malware. A value of zero means the user thought they never wanted to
see the boot menu, or something changed it for them.
msconfig also lets you do a reboot into Safe Mode without all the
whoopla of the other manipulations noted by John. However, you still
need to be booted into Windows to run msconfig to reboot into Safe Mode.
If there is a problem loading Windows, msconfig may not be accessible.
