  • cannot set a MS update error __windows system screw root 32\hal.dll responding done admin password not respond__see notes below

    I have a pc running windows XP sp2 which has been disconnected from the network for a year. I started using it last week, of course, he went to get 100 MS updates updates automatically. then it crashed and was an error of windows root system 32\hal.dll. I tried to use the repair console utility as described on the website. When I get to the admin password prompt (that there is no) and press enter (by default), it does not work. I then ran 2 against crackers of password for the pc that also come with this being so. at this point, I am at a loss if I can't get the Admin password that I can't run the repair utility to fix this error? I then decided to clean the disc and reload the XP and loosing all data. I can't find a way to (fdisk) or wipe the OS of the PC to reload the operating system of the software I have...

    Someone save me before chuck this thing and buy a MAC

    try and solve this problem,
    In order to format the drive, you will need your XP cd or recovery media supplied with your PC.  There are also third-party utilities you can start with and format your drive.  However, if you have the XP cd, you can remove the drive partition, recreate the partition, and then format the drive during the installation phase.

  • Dell your 2161DS remote console switch cannot change the Admin password after updated to the latest Firmware

    Dear Sir:
     
    After having updated the latest Firmware [Dell your 2161DS digital switch, Firmware, Multi OS, Multi language, Multi system, v.3.1.0.0, 1.3 (A03-00)] and restore the default settings. We do this directly through the Remote Console software.  Seeing the log in window, the user name is "Admin" and there is no password.  We can access in the switch, but "Admin" a/c is missing from the "User" settings category. So we can't change the Admin password.
     
    Could you help us to change any password Admin password?
     
    Thank you

  • Cannot download or update without admin password

    Hello

    I'm having difficulties to be able to download my photoshop Creative Cloud app. I am already connected, but I can't download or update my adobe programs without providing an admin password that I do not have. It's a company computer and the person who works with that before I experienced the same issues. What should I do to download?

    Unfortunately without the admin password you will not be able to install all software.

    You must have the admin password to install applications.

  • Accidentally, by clicking on the security apparatus Softwear would disable my Win 8 admin password?

    I have no idea what could have happened to my password admin on my new Windows 8, (gateway NV), but it's not good! I have MONTHS of research on what I can not access to, and do not know how he would have changed, I am the only person who had it. I don't even know if this button was touched, I'm looking at all the possible things that could influence a password parameter.
    It happened when I had multiple open windows, for the most part to different legal sites, as ILCS & heritage.org, sites that I wouldn't think would be compromised. I have installed Norton. Also Malwarebites, both have proved to be effective and will work together. I starts to implement the program of the voice, & was the programming of the microphone. It's the last thing I was doing.
    The speakers muffled, then a reverberation resonated... This still is, & it picks up every little sound of echo.my dogs lose their minds, it's kinda weird for me also. But the more I tried to find a way to stop it, more I didn' there know what I was doing, of course. The next thing that happened was whenever I click to access anything EITHER, the Admin password screen opens, but the password I have on all three of my computers no longer works on this one, and it's where all the one is I NEED for my research. They are originl and cannot be replaced, I have not even the camera or whatever it is now. So, they are not saved anywhere else. I have network the computers together, so I can access photos of each of them, for different parts of the book that is intended for the computer. But I can't access them on those other PC either, without Admin PW... What the hell happened?

    Sorry, this really sound like a Windows support question and not at all related to Firefox. First thing to do would be to talk to the bridge (since it's a new device) and see if their support can help you.

  • Remove admin password in the BIOS in Portege R500

    I am trying to disable the admin password in the BIOS of my laptop series r500, * and I know * current password.

    I tried the procedure from the following post, who works to disable the user password. It basically involves change the empty password.
    But it does not work for the admin password:

    I initially allowed because I wanted to see if there is 'hidden' in my BIOS options (long story... tried to get virtualization extensions to work).
    Now I have to type it every time I turn on my laptop, which is quite annoying.

    Someone has any suggestions, how to get around this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    You mean the admin account password, which must be defined during the installation of the OS?
    This password cannot be disabled in the BIOS!

    But if you talk to supervisor password then I would recommend checking the utility called preinstalled Toshiba password tool.
    You should find it in the utility folder Toshiba.

    The password of Toshiba utility allows you to set, delete, and change the password user and supervisor.

    Check it!

  • Tweak UI 2.1 changed the XP admin password

    Me I ran Tweak UI 2.1 and somehow an admin password and now I'm completely locked down with no other user profiles to get even on the menu 'start '. Any ideas?

    Probably use you TweakUI to put in place logon automatically and entered the wrong password, your account, or the wrong account. Login to the administrator account integrated, safe mode (assuming you have XP Home) and cancel whatever it was you did. If you don't have XP Home but have Pro/Media Center instead, so you don't need to go to Safe Mode. Just do Ctrl-Alt-Del to the Welcome screen to get the classic logon box. Use "Administrator" (without the quotes) and enter the actual password or, if you do not assign a password, leave this field blank. If you configure an automatic connection, you can also work around this and get to the home screen holding the SHIFT key while you are starting in Windows.

    If you have XP Pro or Media Center and use the administrator for your daily work and it is really the single user on the system account (and now you can see why this is not recommended), then all is not lost. Unfortunately, Microsoft does not allow us to tell how, in these forums. Their House, their rules. Use Google or ask a technician to the local computer (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).

    If you have any questions, please do after back but with the understanding that we cannot help you further about passwords bypassing here in the Forums MS responses.
