Gerry I unchecked the option you listed but its still rebooting
automatically just after it shows me a password option in my account in safe
mode. Also tried it in F8, diabled automatic restart, clicked F8 again for
safe mode, got to password and then rebooted again before i could enter my
password.
Havent tried just keyboard mouse and monitor yet. Will post results...
