armagan Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I have a problem with my Windows account and I'd be very, very happy if you could help me. Here's my problem: my Windows account is limited, it can't install any software which I'm looking a solution for.I don't know administrator password. I've thought to find or reset it. I've found several programs for this but they require booting from either floppy or cd-rom and my first boot device is set to hdd. I can't enter bios either, it's also password protected. I'm afraid to pull bios battery..I only want to able to install software. Can you please give me any light on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jondercik Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 No, if your company wanted you to be able to install software they would have given your account the rights to do it.Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're assuming without knowing for sure. Armagan, is this a PC at your work or home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He recently quit and left without telling user and password information also took the our Windows cds with him. I'm asking your help with the approval of my boss, he himself asked me to do something about it. So I'd be very happy if you could help me.
