But F8 did work. It got you to a screen with a ton
of options, and one option was broken.

Doing a boot repair now, will remove the Repair My System item,
at a guess.

I don't think the ReagentC information is changed by
Boot Repair, but it might be doing "reagentc /disable"
and that's why the Repair My System disappears.

I wanted to see if we could make a "stable 8500" by
using a clean OS.
