    Recovery System Restore What?
    « on: May 06, 2008, 06:01:12 PM »
    So I was working the network setting an changed it so that it would log under administrator but I cant log in an I don't remember the user id since this is a given PC cause it has problems.  There is software that I need to test PCs on it that I need before I format it.

        You are well aware that we cannot and will not give assistance in obtaining user names or passwords. You need to ask the person who gave it to you.

            Without a back up disk or being able to run restore, it's beyond my knowledge. :'(

            How, without the password, to go back to before the password got changed? That's a classic, Squall! Thanks for cheering up my day  :)

              I had a feeling that someone would possible say that, thought maybe theres a site for a universal backup disk or something.  That's the only problem I didn't get anything with this just the PC its self.  Know go back before I set it to log in as an administrator.  It looks like I have to do it the hard way.  Theres nothing really on it just these test files.  But you wouldn't believe the truth even if I told ya.  Cause you cant tell me.

              You were given a pc with important files on it that you can 'have' but the owner is unreachable to give you access.

                Yes, it does look like you have to do it the hard way.

                Like I said before, you've been here long enough to know that no matter the excuse given, we do not explain to people how to do things like this.

                Particularly if it's not hard to find out how to do it.
