| 1264493 | 2012-03-12 02:59:00 | Which version of Windows? | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1264494 | 2012-03-12 03:01:00 | Do you mean Win7 x64? Is this what you mean?? Windows\system32\config? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1264495 | 2012-03-12 03:05:00 | Thank you speedy Trying to follow this www.howtogeek.com but its giving me trouble on this cd /mnt/windows/Windows/System32/config Can't find it. |

| 1264496 | 2012-03-12 03:10:00 | I do have XP Pro and Win 7 system32 DIRS both for 64 bit. | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1264497 | 2012-03-12 03:13:00 | I doubt its a 64bit system now actually. But I still can't change to the directory listed above /mnt/windows/Windows/System32/config any ideas? |

| 1264498 | 2012-03-12 03:18:00 | There is no windows/windows folder. Its c:\windows\system32\config (in Win7 x64). In XP 32 bit, its the same. C:\windows\system32/config | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1264499 | 2012-03-12 03:25:00 | /mnt/windows is the mount the directory is /Windows/System32/config Still not sure why I can't cd to it though |

| 1264500 | 2012-03-12 03:29:00 | What are you doing this in? Vista / Win7, or linux?? If its windows, you dont need mnt. If its windows go to that folder / hold shift down, then right mouse. Select open command window here | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1264501 | 2012-03-12 03:48:00 | Ah so you want to reset a windows login password? Use this instead if you are. (pogostick.net). Click on bootdisk up the top Get the ISO then burn it. Then boot from the CD. Or get the files for a USB flash drive, then copy the files to it. Then type this in windows command prompt, to make it bootable. CD to the flash drive first X:syslinux.exe -ma X: where X is the letter of the flash drive. Once you boot from the Cd or flash drive. Just select the defaults. Until you get to the partition windows is on. You have to make sure you select the right partition, so it can remove / reset the password. (esp if the computer has a restore partition) Then, remember to press Q (or !) I think it is to write what you've done. Before you quit |
