    Dutty Smoothy..... Perhaps some additional info would help....... For example, What operating system is on the machine ?
    Are you able to use the machine as a guest ?
    Is this your machine ?
    Have you tried going in thru safe mode ?
    Do you have the windows nice shiny CD if required ?

    And last but not least, How do you forget the password on the machine you use all the time ?

    If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

       Dutty Smoothy..... ok ...then given you dont use the laptop very often , and you say your ....... copy of the o/s is scratched..... LOL..... why not use the nice shiny Win cd that comes with your desktop and do a format on the laptop and use the serial code that was provided with the laptop?

      You either need to :

      1) Remember the password on your own machine, OR

      2) Reinstall Windows

      If you don't have a usable Windows CD, then you need to get one from the manufacturer or buy one from a store.

      Other than that we cannot help.
