Windows password change/remove:
It was one hell of a day, when I was trying to get online for my work and could not start my comp. I know for sure I entered the right password but it still did not get through to the windows screen....I tried restarting it a few times...no go....however one of my friend came as my savior.....here is what I did as per his suggestion...
1. Insert windows CD. make sure you boot from CD. After the license agreement, choose R to repair.
2. After loading, scanning and copying the files..let the comp boot automatically.
3. While booting keep watching for a window that would say "installing devices". When this comes up press shift + F10.
4. A command prompt will pop up. Type NUSRMGR.CPL and enter. This will give you access to the user account window.
5. in this window you will have access to remove or change the password.
wow...with this I just removed the password and was able to successfully log in.
oh..by the way..let me tell you what the cause for this was...it was nothing but "torrents"...I had downloaded a lot of movies from bit torrent..it brought loads of virus into my sys....I have learnt my lesson...I still watch movies..but online..from the websites...:-)..
