Advanced Start Menu (Boot Menu)

What key must I press on my Satellite Pro M70-220 laptop during startup of Win XP, in order to get into the "Advanced Start Menu" - that is, the menu that gives various boot options, such as Safe Mode, Last Good Startup Congiguration, Normal Windows Startup, etc. ?

On my old Satellite 5105-S702 laptop it was the F8 key, but pressing the F8 key on my Pro M70 does not appear to bring up the "Advanced Start Menu".

The Advanced Start Menu came up on its own a couple days ago, after an abnormal shutdown, so it would appear that it does exist on the Pro M70.

Thanks for any advice anyone can offer.

Try hitting F8 repeatedly right after the boot screen.

cheers ...

Tried again, this time pressing F8 repeatedly as you suggested, and it worked.

Thanks for your help.
