• Laptop HP 2000: user password screen forgot lock

  I forgot the user password screen on laptop from HP running windows 2000 8, just after the adjustment for the first time.  There is no option to log in as administrator (only the personal user appears).  There is no personal data / files on the PC.  Need instructions step by step to retrieve or reset the password.  OR another option would be to default factory reset and start again, but once again need directions to do so.
