yh i did try tht but when i burned the image to disk the drive is not finding the cd

you did burn the iso as an image? you didn't just create a data disk with the iso file on? also check the boot settings in your bios.

Tried the LiveCD of this? http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/ And give ImgBurn a go if you are having problems burning an ISO file.

Is the guest account imparing your ability to type proper words from the English language too?

you dont get passwords from nowhere,
someone must have set it up for you,

only way is to use third party app that can hack and change it for you,

the one marc suggested DOES work, get it to set the admin's password to blank

just read on screen carefully, and you DO want it to 'write back changes' at the end, to take effect

reboot, then press ctrl + alt + del twice, type in administrator and the blank password

Of course it does!

Is this not a form of hacking? I didn't think OCUK would allow it here.

Oh well, I use Winternals for such like. A pretty expensive suite though.

What's the point in this post? Not everyone knows the English Language 100%, so who are you to comment on it?

If you don't have anything nice to post, don't post anything at all.
