• Cannot connect to Windows Vista due to password problem

  I have a Dell XPS computer laptop model PP28L and run Vista Home Premium. When I bought the computer I bought in a pawn shop. Of course it was sold with no records at all. No recovery or restore of Windows disks. I have a valid Microsoft "proof of License'for my Vista Home Premium. Should I be reinstall Windows and if yes how I'd get the disks.

  * original title - cannot connect on Windows Vista Home Premium because someone changed my password, deleted my ID of the administrator and the guest connection. I am in the *.

  Your only option is to do a clean install of Vista.  There is no free, download of the disk.  Contact the manufacturer of the computer and they may be willing to sell you a set of recovery disks to reinstall the system (but you will need 23 digit product key to activate it in all probability even if sometimes it is not necessary when it is made with recovery on the same computer discs).

  Here is Microsoft's policy on software lost: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246 you can see is not much help.

  If you can borrow an installation disk of Vista genuine of the same size of the bit of ANYONE, you can use that with your product key to re - install the system and start over (you get a new administrator account and set your own password for him - or to leave empty that you choose).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  Hello

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. Safe Mode ADMINISTRATOR account has no password by default (unless someone has changed the password so it should be available).

  Some programs such as the Google Updater (if you added the toolbar Google, Chrome or Google Earth) has been known to cause this problem.

• cannot connect to windows the first time I try to use the password. Enter it in the second time and it gives me access

  I am using windows 7 Home premium 64-bit on an HP desktop with intel 3.4 GHz processor.  About two weeks ago, I noticed that when I tried to connect to windows by entering the user password, the system would have indicated the incorrect password.  Then I must enter exactly the same password again once, he would give me access.  A few days later, I noticed that every time I tried to connect to a Web site that requires a user ID, the cursor would move in through all the ID I used on this site previously.  Can someone help me fix this problem?

• I lost my administrator password and you cannot connect to windows 7 - any help on each change or recover the password?

  How to recover the password lost for windows 7?

  How to recover the password lost for windows 7?

  While your application may very well be authentic, it could also be interpreted as a surreptitious attempt to bypass Windows security.

  The only recommended method to retrieve an administrative password is to login as another administrator account and reset the password to a known unknown. If the administrative passwords could be easily overcome, there would not be much point in them.

  It is in the terms of use and the Code of conduct of the responses of these forums to request or provide assistance to the cracking a password. Do not forget that you agreed to these and review if necessary.

  You can view the policy of Microsoft about lost or forgotten passwords (KB189126) for more information on what resources are available to you.

  The only advice I can offer you is either log - on another user with administrator privileges and reset your password to a new, use the password reset disk that you created when you set up your account, start guessing what the password could possibly be or reinstall Windows by default.

• XP - cannot connect to Windows Update (error Code: 0X80072EFE)

  OS: Windows XP: SP3

  I currently have problems to connect to Windows Update. I can't connect to the site at all and is the "this page cannot be displayed" whenever I try to open it. When you try to update Microsoft Security Essentials, I get error 0x80072EFE. I have already reset Windows Update by the fix in default and in aggressive mode with nothing doesn't.

  EDIT: I also ran several different viruses, malware, and trojan scanners so I'm probably clean them.

  PART A: Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. double-click on the file that you saved in #1 above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4 reset the Windows Update components (again), restart & test: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

• Cannot connect to Windows XP Pro shared printer

  From: Mike J

  I have a XP Pro PC on my home network and trying to connect a Lexmark X 215 printer that is shared out of the XP Pro machine.  I connect with a new laptop Windows Vista Home Premium Dell XPS M1530.  The rest of the network works fine - shared files, folders, Internet access, etc.

  The message that I get when I try to connect, it's that Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied.

  Any thoughts?

  You should see a similar directory structure.  If it returns access denied, you need to enable read on the share permissions of $ print XP which is the default configuration.

  If you have not run the network configuration wizard XP make sure you run this tool.

  Yes, something has changed the security settings on the print sharing $.

  Since you're under XP Pro, you can reset it and allow all the world read access.  Do a right click my computer / manage / shared folders / sharing / right click $ Print properties/sharing permissions

  Administrators and power users have full access to everything the world group should be there with read access.  I guess that the Everyone group is missing.

• Cannot connect to Windows 7 PC via Wi Fi

  I have a Stor.E TV + 2 TB I've tried everything but can't connect to PC Windows 7.
  However, it will connect to a Windows XP OK computer.
  Someone at - it solution

  I found that connecting to Windows 7 with WiFi or other is a business blindly. The reason is not clear, but probably because the Toshiba is not properly designed to be discovered by Windows 7. Even computers Windows XP need some software utilities installed to be discovered by Win 7. Often the Toshiba appears at the bottom of the page of the network as a disc that is present but cannot be discovered. Sometimes it will appear under network locations if you pass the Toshiba and the new to reset the IP address. In addition to the usual file sharing settings, the drive must be mapped under 'computer '. Very often when the player does not appear under the 'Network' locations, double click the disc 'Computer' open records even if it does not appear in the sites 'network '. Don't ask me why. I worked around this and other issues such as the inability to copy large files, without interface specified Samba, etc, etc.. I installed the updated software, but other issues have slipped now that I've never had before like files FLAC freeze the player and does not properly (noise spikes). In truth, unfortunately, is a * finish without any support, and should not be on the market. I can't even sell it because it wouldn't be ethical it land on a poor unsuspecting, but hours of frustration to work around these problems, just to be able to use it, is counterproductive. I'll be more careful next time in choosing a provider.
