thankyou very much chappies and chapesses - much appreciated. That does the job. Good stuff - 1 life saved!

That is the point... I dont know..or cant find the admin password. I need to log on locally to the computer because there is no domain to log onto now. I need a way of bypassing/overriding or generally getting past the login screen without a password - I have heard tell that it can be done... Cheers for atleast posting though - Thanks.

Hi - PLEASE PLEASE help... I have done some work on a laptop for someone, in doing that i added them to our domain. I finished the work (patches + updates from windows.update) and then put the laptop back into a WORKGROUP. NOW i CANT LOGIN! Aaaahhhh! No account will login, and i cant get past the Ctrl Alt + Del screen. Any gurus out there or anyone with the 'correct' software that wont kill this pooor persons laptop ??? Many thanks - I appreciate any help anyone can give. Bill
