Re: Forgot computer password

First of all, what operating system is this? Are you talking about the Windows user password or the BIOS password? (I assume the Windows one?) If that is the case, sorry but you're outta luck if you totally don't have any user account with a password you remember. It's time for a reformat.

Re: Forgot computer password

I would first try safe mode and see if the Admin account has a password ,some time people just password the account with there name on it ,and don't even know there is a admin account in safe mode .If this is the case and you can get into safe mode go to users in control panel and create a new password to your account .
