My son's PC had I think some corrupted Radeon software. It wouldn't load the app, couldn't access Radeon settings, and said it detected driver verson 0.0.0.0 in BF2.
I downloaded and ran the AMD cleanup utility from their website, and it popped up a window asking to restart in safe mode, which I did.
However - when the PC restarted it was asking for a password, not a PIN as usual. None of our passwords worked. I went on to my PC and reset my son's Microsoft password, but it is still saying password is not correct on his login screen.
What is unusual is that there are no options showing up on the screen either for resetting password or getting help. Doesn't that usually happen when inputting the incorrect password?
Is there anything else I can try before I nuke his installation and reinstall Windows?
