| 882031 | 2010-05-03 04:33:00 | I have always used NT Password reset and have never had any issues with it, however I've got a Tosh Satellite A200 that it just won't load up on, I've tried a bunch of switches but each time it either errors or stops on 'io scheduler deadline registered (default)'. I know there are other utilities out there, but I've never had to use any of them so have pretty limited knowledge - what other utilities can reset a logon password in vista? Cheers! :) |

| 882033 | 2010-05-03 04:46:00 | www.hiren.info seems to have a couple of options under password tools. |

| 882034 | 2010-05-03 04:48:00 | I have a Hiren boot cd here but found the Bart PE one much quicker and easier to use. But that's just me Dave! :) | FAB (6923) | ||
| 882035 | 2010-05-03 04:51:00 | I'll have to try that one out, FAB. :) (Just a thought, NT Password is a basic Linux. Could it be made to boot from a USB flash drive?) |

| 882036 | 2010-05-03 04:58:00 | Sweet dealio, will try BartPE now. Cheers. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 882037 | 2010-05-03 05:03:00 | You can make a bootable USB key for Bart PE. In saying that, i see AVG recently (?) released a very simple bootable CD/USB package (yes, free). I doubt it includes any locksmith type of util, but handy built-in virus scanner with signatures updatable over network connection...quite a handy tool. Yeah Bart PE can do the same but can never have too many of these utils when you are desperate! www.avg.com.au |

| 882039 | 2010-05-03 05:59:00 | Too much drama getting BartPE to co-operate - downloaded HBCD, everything is sorted. Thanks both for your suggestions, especially Dave! :thanks | wratterus (105) | ||
| 882040 | 2010-05-03 06:25:00 | You're welcome, Good to hear it's sorted. | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
