If you boot into Safe Mode Command Prompt, HIMEM.SYS does not load.  You
are left with a bare 640 KiB environment to start with, just as in the
good 'ol DOS days.

If you're truely paranoid about it, get a FreeDOS boot disk to run
loadros.com with, put in autoexec.bat:

C:
CD REACTOS
CALL ABOOT

... and you'll be just fine.
