Tried that, no luck. Don't I still need a p/w in safe mode? I tried the passwords that he thought, 1Toshiba1, 1toshiba1, 1TOSHIBA1, 1Toshiba, ... (I won't list all combinations). I am pretty sure I blank, but I can't remember all the possibilities in safe mode.

I know this quistion has been asked several times before, but when I searched the forums I do not find what I am after. I have a 2 part question: 1. A co-worker was fooling around his laptop (XP/Pro) in his Local Users and Groups accounts and deleted what he thought were "unused" accounts. He deleted his account and some others and does not know his Admin password. He bought the laptop from a friend and the friend does not know the correct password either! I tried "blank" and the others suggested by both former and current owners but the syntax may not be correct. How can I reset or recover the Admin password? 2. I suspect that he destroyed most of his data under the deleted account(s). Is it possible to recover the data or is the data still there just unassessable under other user log-ins? There is no password hint option, the user does not know if his account had admin rights or not.

I cannot get a printer to connect on a ClassC network with the address of 192.168.0.229. I address the card and cannot ping it. I have tried on the server and via a laptop with a crossover cable with no reply. I have another printer on 192.168.0.228 and all is fine. I ended up changing the address to 192.168.0.227 and all is fine. The LAN is running on a Win 2000 Server and the Administrator is pretty sharp, he has no idea why the .229 address will not respond.
