Cannot go to Windows Safe Mode

I need to open Windows in the Safe Mode to perform a MS fix for another
problem. The instruction says to hit F8 after the BIOS information is
displayed. I have tried this and variations of hitting the F8 key with no
results. Is there any other way to open in SAFE mode?

Start tapping F8 as soon as the BIOS info starts displaying. Keep
tapping it.
