Solve : Upon system resore login screen asking for username and password? |
|
Answer» Earlier today I tried to install a game and in ORDER to meet the requirements it asked me to install some drivers, so I did that. Then when it told me to restart my computer I did so and upon getting back to my LOGIN screen where my username with the icon should be asking for a password, it instead has no icon and now a username and a password bar awaits input. I do not understand what to put in here since I have tried my previous username and password I gave my profile when first installing windows 7. Where do I go from here? I'll be even happy just to reset my computer. I don't mind if everything is erased I didn't have much data on it anyways. ...I'll be even happy just to reset my computer. I don't mind if everything is erased I didn't have much data on it anyways.That would probably be the best. Who KNOWS what the "game" was trying to do. 1. Try "Last Known Good Configuration", F8 at the Windows splash screen will give you a list. 2. If this is not a branded computer (HP, Dell, etc.), Windows repair install. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html Is there a way I can just reset my computer WITHOUT actually accessing my computer? Because the problem is I can't even get to my desktop because it's asking for a username and password that I don't know.Oh, and I did try doing "Last Known Good Configuration" after pressing f8. It says that the current point is fine but I can still not get pass this username and password screen. It's not detecting any administrator profile. What if you give it a new user name & LEAVE the password blank?Negative. I've tried just about every combination. Even my old Username for my profile I inputed and still no result. Did you try just hitting Enter at the password prompt ? ?Yes, I've just hit enter. It then says Windows Security, username and password is incorrect.I sounds like Windows Login Hijacked By Malware . What game were you installing? What drivers did it ask to install? If you're locked out of a logon, Windows repair might not work. You may have to perform a clean install. Did you try CTL-ALT-DEL Username: Administrator Password: I'm gonna have to use a Hiren's BootCD Thanks for the help though guys, very much appreciated |
