We have like 100 of these computers in the school, but these five were strange, they just wouldn't boot off another device.
I pressed Enter repeatedly (to interrupt normal startup). then it gave me a list. It went something like this:
1. boot from device
2. run diagnostics
3. repair system
Boot from device didn't work, so I selected the diagnostic option (I cant remember the exact name of the option though, it was something more like 2. enter lenovo diagnostics and settings or something along those lines.
So once selecting the diagnostic, it booted up and entered the lenovo diagnostic thing. You could reset the admin password, but you needed to answer 3 security questions. Unfortunately we were unable to contact the admin who left out school, we couldn't reset it. So in the lenovo diagnostics, you can choose to boot from a device, then it asks to restart and you click yes. It will then allow you to boot from a device. I don't understand why you can't just use F12 at startup, those computers were weird. Yet there are many others in the school that allow you to boot using F12.
So I booted up from a CD which had Ophcrack on it. First off I entered the graphical mode, but it lagged, so I rebooted into the CLI mode and it cracked it in about 5 minutes.
Haha, then I had people asking me for a copy of the CD, I'm like "Nope"... then they are like, where can i donload it? - "I'm not telling" ;p
