Locked out of my computer because it requires a password... which has never implemented... _

I have a PC from Dell Home Office.  It is Windows XP... It is about 3 years old.  Never, I put a log on password for enter... But now for some reason it is to ask for one?  So I can't go past the beginning upward / log on screen.  Can be a help for this?

Well, someone in your home has put a BIOS password. You should ask other people who use the computer. Otherwise just Google for "password BIOS clear". MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    When I try to access XPMode in Win.7 - either, he asks a password that has never been, and most of the adjustments or places to change something is grayed out in the newspaper on the page for XP, or on my computer where there is a chance to change things like "debt", etc.  My registry maybe THAT screwed up?

    You can change your password to something you remember (or use a white) another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    I had to put a password on my computer because my son kept while I SLEEP...  Now, I've disconnected and don't remember my password...  I don't have a recovery disk and I don't know what to do... Help, please.

    Start the computer in safe mode and log on to the built-in account named administrator .  You will need to know the password, if any, for this account.  Once, go to Panel > user accounts and change the password for your regular account.

    Then, restart the computer and you connect to your regular account with the new password.  If the computer has a floppy drive, you can make a password reset disk

  • System administrator password, it's too long-locked out of my computer

    I created a password for the system administrator.  I can not connect in my computer now.  Apparently, the password I created was too long, because it does not fit in the password input area.  Why he would allow me to create a password does not work?  What can I do?  Help, please!  Thank you very much.

    In accordance with the following Microsoft article, the maximum length of password on Windows XP is 127 characters.  If the window will not hold your password, just keep typing - strikes will be saved.

  • My iphone screen 5 fell, and now I can't restore it because it requires a password

    I recently acquired an iphone 5 from a friend, he told me I could have for free (it's understandable then.) only because it has been broken into pieces, with missing pieces and the screen cannot be correctly mounted, in any case, I get the phone, screen works fine, no problem, a month passes by and after the infamous green lines square white and black holes forming on screen, my screen decides to die, my friend told me he only let him down, which I'm slowly starting to do not believe rather that he threw it and hard, now only appears a blank black screen.

    in any case, what I was wondering is, how am I to access my phone with all my personal data on it? I can not restore because it requires the phone to be unlocked, which of course, I can't do. can anyone help?

    Did you choose to back up your device to iCloud via Wi - Fi?

    If the WiFi is enabled on the phone, connect to the adapter and wait the phone save automatically on iCloud. After your personal data and settings must be saved to iCloud, and you can clear the device by connecting to your iCloud computer account, select your device in "find my iPhone".  Tap 'Clear' and disable ' find my iPhone ' after that your phone has been erased.

    After that, you should be able to restore the phone without the password lock screen.

    Using Windows 7.  Note of the screen says I have to enter a password to unlock my PC.  I've never assigned a password so that I can not start.  What can I do to use this computer?

    Someone probably set up an automatic logon process that gets Windows to remember your password at logon. These passwords are easily forgotten because they are never used. Here's what you need to do:

    1. Forcibly restart the machine by pressing the power button for 10 seconds.
    2. Log in normally.
    3. Change your screen saver so that it does not require a password.
    4. Create, test, and document an admin account to spare, even you have a spare House key. This will save you a lot of trouble. It would have saved you this time too!

  • I'm trying to restore Vista OS to the factory settings and it requires a password that I never created.

    It is an Acer Aspire 5315 that my mom gave to my daughter. She says that she has never created a system restore point that requires a password so how to do this? Oh, and I have no disc as it came preloaded.

    Hello

    A System Restore Point is not the process of factory settings recovery.

    Using a System Restore Point puts the settings of the computer to an earlier date.

    Recovery to factory settings is to reinstall the operating system to how it was when new.

    Some Acer models have a default password that you use to start the process of the "hidden" recovery Partition Recovery

    Usually press you Alt + F10 at startup to start the process of relocation and Acer default password should be 6 zeros, unless someone has changed.

    If not, give Acer a phone call.

    See you soon.
