first off...your topic subject is way offline...

your topic subject should be "forgot password" or forgot admin password"

(read the forum rules!)

2nd...can you logon to the pc at all?

i would hope you just don't logon as the default "administrator" account.

if you don't logon as the default "administrator" then you can reset the admin password through the "User accounts" in the control panel.

or from the command prompt type this in...

net user administrator *

then type in the password of your choice.

you have several choices here....

take out your hd and slave it to another pc and suck off the data you want.

or

ghost your hd and suck off the data you want with ghost explorer..

or you can create a bart pe cd and download this plugin

create your cd with the plugin....

boot up the cd..and run the utility to reset your admin pwd.

how can i move it to another section?

and yea it was the administrator i cant get into the computer at all

well then its time to open your computer tower! only do this is you feel comfortable otherwise consult your local geek!

What your going to end up doing is

  1. Opening Your Computer Tower
  2. Pulling out the password jumper (if your computer has one, if not u cant do this)
  3. Closeing the computer cover
  4. Starting the computer
  5. Then you will be able to log in with out a password
  6. shutting down the computer
  7. opening the computer
  8. putting the password jumper back in
  9. closeing the computer
  10. starting the computer again
  11. logging in without a problem
  12. then resetting the password

Look in your manual to see if your computer even has a password jumper first(i know dells do) and if it does you'll have to see where it is located

hope this helps

^^100% agree with gamehead. Theres no way you can find your old password if you forgot it. You need to set it blank then change it from there. Has happened to me 5 times already! And other clients.
