I am having some major issues with an Dell Optiplex 760.
The Issue:
So an error comes up after I select an account to login it gives the error:
The User Profile Service failed the logon. User profile cannot be
loaded.
I'm using Windows 7 Professional.
A way to fix that issue is if you can get to Safe Mode but the F8 doesn't work.
I tried multiple keyboards nothing and another way to load Safe Mode is by msconfig but I cannot load into windows to make them changes. The furthest I can go is the account selection screen(I only have that one account) and then when selected shows that error.
However I can load to Boot Device Menu when pressing F12, but can't seem to find a way to load Safe Mode with it.
This has been bugging me for days done research and nothing really useful came out.

You can force a Windows computer to boot in safe mode without using the F8 key by using msconfig. The following link walks you through the process for Win7, Win8, and Win10, but it's similar for older versions. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/force-windows-to-boot-into-safe-mode-without-using-the-f8-key/
