Can anyone help me with entering a command prompt (-safemode)b/c i keep getting error messages and i dont know if im doing this right so if someone could help that'd be great.

And before u ask i've looked on all support sites for halo pc and they all say the same thing that the readme page says...and it's still not working. Thx

make sure you put a space between the quotation mark in the traget line, and the command prompt.

for example:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe" -safemode

If you are using it for something like HEK or a diagnostic tool - copy it out of this directory:

C: -> WINDOWS -> system32 -> cmd [should be a command prompt icon]

Then paste it in the directory where the program or file you want to use is located. That way you don't have to navigate through the system to get it - really easy, much easier if you aren't good with command prompt.

Run the mslxmenu or whatever it is - it's under the Halo root directory.

If that doesn't work, try reinstalling.
