Is that really necessary ?
Administrator window (Command Prompt only):
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu True
That changes the menu type from "tile" to "text".
In addition, in text mode, an F8 option is offered.
You just press F8 then, and you are in Safe Mode menu.
I turn off hibernation, to reduce the complexity of using Windows.
This eliminated Fast Boot, and having problems editing things later,
in an offline mode. For example, if a disk is running Tiles and
has no F8, I can use the Troubleshooting part of the installer DVD,
and the command prompt in there will allow me to add:
bcdedit /store C:\boot\BCD /set {bootmgr} displaybootmenu True # assumes there is a C:\boot\BCD file
and then the next boot of the hard drive I just edited,
I get the text menu with the F8 option offered on the screen.
[Picture] Now the menu includes an F8 at startup, fallthru after 30 seconds
