NEED HELP TO GET PAST LO ON TO Windows screen.Read the below site.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258289thanks for the link to Microsoft. Since the computer is set for no password, I guess I have to reinsall Windows.

I have tried the password used before but no luck.

Any other ideas!dude, i had this problem with my lappy top before...

try turning it on, then shutting it off ruthlessly(not the right way) just unplug it or something or hold down the power button...

then...turn it on again and it should give you a warning message saying how it was improperly shut down and run it in safe mode

if that doesn't work or you've tried that just tell me...

*note* if your current login does have admin privileges *note*

just hack it and CHANGE the password...

go to START, and hit run then type cmd and press ok or enter or whatever...
after it pops up, type "net user Administrator *" (without the quotes)(with the asterisk)(asterisk = *)
it'll tell you to type the new password, but while you type it won't show the letters...not even those
dumb ********* so you can't see what you type...it looks like your really not even typing...
just type it (no mistakes!!!) and hit enter, then it'll ask you to retype it...do it...press enter and it should
work, log out and try...if it says "system error 5, access is denied." then you're kinda screwed and you
don't have Administrator privileges
