| 277489 | 2004-10-02 08:56:00 | How is the logon for Home edition different to Pro? As far as I know they're the same (I use Pro, myself). You can press Ctrl+Alt+Del twice from the Welcome screen, which gives you a proper login prompt. |

| 277491 | 2004-10-02 10:59:00 | hi 45, i knew i should have waited a wee bit longer and d/l'ed those zip files . i am back though, reinstalled and also thanks to winupdate fully sp2'ed...not sure how i feel about that, however time will tell. To whoever suggested the "controluserpasswords" I had tried that but needed admin privs to use it...which i didnt have!!! It is rather a mystery how I lost my privies in the first place, its not likely i would have changed them myself...be a bit stoopid aye!! Anyway guys I'm thinking of recreating the problem to try out this proggie 45 suggested.....may be able to bypass sp2 somehow.... Once again thanks pf 1'ers donna |

| 277494 | 2004-10-02 11:22:00 | As WTF has already said, yes it works on XP (including SP2) I actually have a better boot CD that is much easier to use than the links I posted but it's around 7mb & a wee bit too big to offer to email to anyone I don't have any links for it for downloading but i can make it available on my ftp if anyone wants it It's a bastardised linux boot disk that lets one delete all passwords on any NT based system I've used it many a time without problem so far. To Donna, glad your up & running again, but you've missed your shot at geekdom!! :) |

| 277496 | 2004-10-02 11:53:00 | 45, i have a funny feeling that there will be plenty more opportunites for geekdom, for the moment i'll just hang round here a tad longer and use your guys "geekhood", if you dont mind..... what makes the boot disk you have "better" if i may be so bold to ask!!! and yeh i wouldnt mind grabbing a copy off you too cheers donna |

| 277497 | 2004-10-02 14:42:00 | > and yeh i wouldnt mind grabbing a copy off you too Me three ( or is it four? ). I'll add it to my master boot CD I use for installing Windows to the new PCs I sell, and much more, fixing killed windowses etc. When finished it will be able to boot a PC, install windows from CD, all other apps from network, which is faster than 52X CD. Maybe some of you could help? I rely heavily on Bart's stuff ( http://www.nu2.nu ). Cheers |
