6.7 Safe Boot Mode
The DSV2+ provides a mechanism that permits the recovery of lost or
damaged Operating System files via a “Safe Boot” mode. This
mechanism is similar to Microsoft Windows Safe Mode that is
available on PCs. If one or more Operating System files are damaged
or inadvertently deleted, when the unit is turned on it will automatically
boot-up into a smaller, limited function version of Windows CE that
will permit the recovery of the files or allow them to be replaced or
overwritten. This permits the unit to be repaired and then subsequently
rebooted using the full version of Windows CE. Safe Boot mode can
also be accessed on demand by holding down the F1 key while turning
on the power to the unit. A special bitmap will appear indicating that
the unit is booting-up in Safe Boot mode.
