Hello

It is available on you microsoft information help on problems with passwords

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/940765

If you are unable to connect to Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you can use the Windows Vista System Restore feature, or the Windows 7 system restore feature.

You may be unable to connect to Windows Vista or Windows 7 in the following scenarios:

  • Scenario 1: You recently set a new password for the protected administrator account. However, you don't remember the password.
  • Scenario 2: You type the correct password. However, Windows Vista or Windows 7 does not accept the password because the system is damaged.
  • Scenario 3: You delete a protected administrator account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.
  • Scenario 4: You change an administrator account protected with a standard user account. Now, you cannot connect to another administrator account.

  • Computer Vista laptop does not detect my speakers!

    When I turned on the laptop today, there is no sound coming from the speakers when I tried to listen to music. The speakers worked yesterday. When I right click on the sound icon in the menu of shortcuts in the lower corner on the right and click Open volume mixer, I can't find the speaker tab reading device (I made sure that both "show disabled devices" and "show disconnected devices" options are checked). The only device listed under the playback tab is "Peripheral digital output (HDMI)". When I turn on the music, the bars on the right side of this unit turn to the Greens according to the sound, but there is still no sound coming from the speakers. There is also no sound in headphones when I plug them in. When I go to Device Manager, disable "high definition audio device" under "Audio, video and game controllers" and reset the laptop, the "digital output device (HDMI)" disappears and no devices are listed on the playback tab in the volume mixer. When I activate the "device high definition audio ' back, the digital output device (HDMI) appears again. So I'm assuming that the computer recognizes speakers as HDMI device even if there is no plug HDMI connected to the laptop.

    This troubleshooting help will be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    1. What is the brand and the model number of this laptop?
    2. use the built-in Laptop speakers or you attach external speakers?
    3. did you of recent changes to the computer?
     
    Check if your headset is set to use as the default value * Communication * device instead of the default device, or if the two devices are configured by default. If so, that the fault of headphones, so that Windows will only use when they are connected.
     
    Method 1.
    Check volume settings.
    a. right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar, then select volume control options.
    b. put a check mark on "all devices evolving sound.
    c. make sure you have "Default uncontrolled communication device".
    d. place a check on the speakers and headphones.

    Method 2.
    I recommend you update drivers sound card from the manufacturer's website and check also if there is windows update available.

    Dear customer,

    Welcome and thanks for posting your question on the Forum of Support HP

    It seems that you are not able to turn on the laptop and tried to solve the problem

    Please perform steps listed to find out if it is a hardware or software problem below:

    1. remove all cables and devices, disconnect them and try to turn on the device

    2. check the LED light situation and ensure the action of the spring button / stop is normal

    3 Exchange with a well known power cord and the AC adapter

    4 Pack no adapters are available, check if the power adaptor is slightly warm

    Note: This will give us an indication that the power adapter could be good

    5. do you know if the laptop was in battery or power adapter when you used the last time

    Note: Make sure that there is no spill of liquid or cutting

    6. check if the Port of the AC adaptor is loose/broken

    Note: If the laptop is not on even with a power adapter well known, this confirms the hardware failure with the system board or power DC Circuit

  • BlackBerry smartphones HELP! "BOLD" does not accept password

    Hi all

    I have a big problem with my "BOLD" (German) 9700 BB.

    As I took on my jacket this morning it does not accept the password to unlock the screen.

    I thought it was me, so I tried again and again led attempts 3/10, 4/10, 5/10...Normally there are stars, so you won't see the pass, now its clear letters and numbers? More: top-right corner it showes EN then maybe this past German to English settig (I don't have it-on lens)

    I am now 9/10, the screen asking me to enter 'blackberry' but I am learning that if it doesn't hurt once more all on the Phanoe will be deleted which would be a nightmare that I don't have a backup...!

    an a German forum about someone with the same problem 'translate' pass numbers (1111) in letters (YYYY) as his apparently English keyboard - I did (get low), but it did not work?

    Someone at - it p l e a s e!

    Great!

    But again, if I want to type something in, clearly shown figurs/numbers, rather than the usual stars that makes me feel theres something wrong...

    Yes, it is normal to show you the characters you type, and it normally occurs after 5 wrong password entered.

    I just plugged it up tho my pc and after the beginning of the BBdesktop, he showed a popup saying:

    "you know that you only have one shot left. After that, all your data will be deleted.

    What is strange: in the title of this popup, he says: BB Bold 9700 - PIN 22BEE12C - what is it? do I type?

    You has not answered my question earlier if you have alternate characters or numbers in your password?

    If so, should we ALWAYS register the pressed ALT key first to this number?

  • Compaq CQ58 computer 301SA laptop does not connect to 50Ghz band on router

    My laptop does not connect to the band 50Ghz on my router dual-band. I know that my router Netgear dual band diffuse 24 and 50 Ghz, but the laptop only shows the 24 Ghz band depending on availability.

    I have a Compaq CQ58 301SA Notebook PC, Windows 8 (64 bit OS).  It has a Ralink RT5390R 802 11bgn network adapter and a Realtek ethernet network adapter. I use the laptop wireless, for example using the Ralink connection and it connects easily to the 24 GHz band, but I want to broadcast TV programs and movies smoothly, for which, I understand that the 50Ghz band is preferable. I pay my ISP (Virgin Media) for a connection to Super-fast broadband but my laptop seems to be limited to the 24 GHz band. Seems to be the case if I work with the adapter Ralink wireless or wired with Realtek ethernet connection.

    This problem can be corrected? If so, how? What I have done research on the web, the problem seems to be network adapters. Can they work on the 50Ghz band? Or do I need to download another adapter (if so, which?) Or use an adapter external network I plug into a USB port?

    Driving me crazy...

    Hello:

    The Ralink RT5390R 802 11bgn is a map of the only band (2.4 GHz) only.

    Whenever you see a labeled bgn wireless card, it is a single band card.

    Cards labeled dual band abgn or agn.

    The maintenance manual (Chapter 3, page 19) does not indicate that any internal dual band card is supported, so you would probably have to go with an external usb dual wireless adapter.

  • Laptop HP - 8.1 Windows: laptop does not accept my password and keeps on rebooting.

    I know my password, but my laptop screen does not allow me to enter and keeps restarting the screen.  I tried to change my password to another laptop.  Even this does not work.  I was not happy from the outset to have a password, but the system would not let me update without it.  Help what I do.  I'm not technical.

    Hey,.

    Thanks for getting back to me! If you have tried the steps that I provided in my previous post and unable to get into your laptop, I would say to contact Microsoft. You can also go to them using their Microsoft Community Forums. They may still have some steps that will help you get in the Windows operating system on your laptop.

  • Laptop does not accept the password after Windows update

    Last Thursday my computer set up regular updates as usual.  When I restarted the computer, it cannot accept my password to complete the start-up operation.  I checked that I had the correct password and caps was off.  Now cannot access the laptop at all.  It is configured with Windows Vista, is a computer dell laptop and I bought it at the beginning of 2009. It seems that I never put a password reset disk and I don't have the original installation disc of vista with me - it all happened to be loaded.  Tips to get again access my laptop?

    Go to your retail store, they should have the disk recovery for you or you need to go to your manufacturer directly because the manufacturer is best qualified to support the software that the manufacturer has installed on the hardware, provide your serial number and order the CD on their part. I bet they arrange an expedition to the France and tax treatment for it, but should not be too much.

    Note: The manufacturer was required to provide a way to reinstall Windows. If it is not a set of disks with the computer, there will be a hidden restore partition (do not be confused with the system restore), you would use to return the computer to the State of the OOBE (Out of Box Experience).
