Xp recovery console don't know admin password

don1400, on Saturday 2 August 2008 à 22:07:56
Hello,
A while back I bought a Dell Optiplex 210L on ebay. It's been great till recently when the system crashed and it will not boot. I tried to use thr XP recovery console but it wants an admin password which I do not have. Is there any way to access the recovery console with out the password? I see that there are fixes to this if you have access to the comnputer, which of course I do not. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don1400
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 7.0

Hi Don1400,
well if you dont have the administrator password you cant do something. you must have it in order to use recovery console. what i would advise you instead is to repair the windows you will use your drivers but not your works. Sometimes when windows crashes you cant repair it and the only way is to format your computer.

Hope that this will help you.

Regards

Reboot your machine.

Press F8 before the Windows boot screen appears.

Do not press F5 as used on the NT/9x series of Windows.

You will be be prompted with a boot options menu.

Select the Start Windows in Safe Mode option.

Click through several self-explanatory screens until your reach the familiar 'Welcome' screen.

Note that this welcome screen is limited to 256 colors and 640x480 resolution because the primary graphics will have been set to the Windows Safe Mode software VGA adapter. You will not be able to change this mode even in Display options, while Windows is running in Safe Mode.

Find the icon for the Administrator user. If the default settings of your system haven't been changed, there should be no password for this account.

The Safe Mode Welcome screen might display some of the other users on your system.

Login as the admin.

Press Yes at the prompt asking if you would like to continue using Safe Mode.

Continue on to the User Settings control panel. Here you can change any of the other passwords for user on the machine. Make any changes you want.

Reboot your computer. As long as you don't press any keys (i.e. F8) during the boot-up the computer will startup normally.

Login as the user for which you set the password.

I have tried to logon in safe mode but no icons come up. When i run thr repair from my xphome cd it freezes at the welcome to windows screen saying please wait with the hourglass showing. Any suggestions would be helpful. I can't run the recovery console because it asks for a password which i never had. I used the security hole (SHIFT F10) and typed NUSRMGR.CPL @ the cmd prompt and then typed control userpasswords2 for no password and now it says wrong user go to control panel which i can't access.

Thanks

You may NOT boot windows in safe mode and change any password i think Mr Gates would have this one covered. To Mr comuter wizz ( NOT ) what would be the point of protecting your data with a security password if you could simply log on in safe mode and gain entry to all the user accounts ! You must be some sort of moron !!!!!!!

There are ways to gain entry to your system but it is complicated and with many risks. Try www.d--bwebpark.pl or take your pc to a reputable computer engineer. I hope this is more help to guys than idiotic suggestions of booting in safe mode.

arrivederci

Reset the admin password with a program like ERD Commander then proceed to the repair console.

I used the free Offline NT Password & Registry Editor tool to successfully reset the local admin password on my Windows PC using a bootdisk (simply follow the instructions in the site):

I have a dell PC with the checksum blue screen error. Trying to recover Windows from recivery CD prompts for type 1 for C: which I did. BUT then it asks for Admin pwd. I have a Admin user account, but it does not like the password. I never had a poweron password. I cant get to the PF8 safemode screen either. My goal here is to recover files from my desktop... which I cannot access to if I use the original HD as a slave drive. I need to be able to boot up using original HD with original settings. Suggestions welcome. Snoop Dogg.
