| 334344 | 2005-03-15 07:08:00 | Hey guys, I have an important question to ask. I have a Windows XP Prof and i have put a password on my logon.. i have only one logon, the problem is i have forgot what password i put on that one logon.. so i tryed to bypass it by going into safe mode and using the Aminastrator account. BUT what i also forgot was that i put a pass on the Amin~ acc and i forgot what it was.. so.. if any people know any other way to get passed it.. please help :( Laterz. |

| 334346 | 2005-03-15 07:28:00 | Ummm... don't mean to cause offence if you are genuine, but what guarantee do we have that it actually is your computer that you have locked yourself out of? | FoxyMX (5) | ||

Just use the Offline NT password disk (home.eunet.no). Follow the prompts (admittedly after getting your PC to boot off a CD). Only crazy people don't set a BIOS password and also only allow booting from the hard drive. If the bios password is lost .. then I'd really suspect the machine belongs to someone else :rolleyes: I believe that ERD Commander costs $$$. |

If you follow the first link in article 17, you'll find the NT Offline tool listed as the first link in the password list. All bases covered ;) SF is dealing with all version in one go which makes it look a bit messy at first. L878, I've never used the tools and definitely not in XP which I don't use. Maybe someone else could break it down to laymans terms. Unfortunately I don't think there is any easy way to do it if you don't have at least intermediate experience. This reset tool (http://www.xppasswordrecovery.co.uk/) is probably the easiest to follow (it's the second file listed in the first link). If you are at all unsure, it would be best to get a professional tech to do it for you. |

The instructions further down for the methods already discussed or linked to, look promising though. | Murray P (44) | ||
