i think i need a miricle, I have a Dell inspiron 8100 laptop. which i bought used. When i first got it i logged on set paswords even surfed the internet for a while. then i put it away for a long while. Then i took it out pushed the start button........... and i get the Dell inspiron blue label. Next it says protected by passrd authentication system. Cannot access with out primary or adminstrator password. ENTER PASSWORD HERE.......... Well i dont have the password, I have no idea what it is. I forgot i quess??? How can i get that out of my way? Go around it or something. i THINK i tried this a few months before this try and some how somewhere it gav me a passwrd hint which was THREE AMIGOS. which means nothing to me. i cant believe that i even said such a hint. can anyone help me please?I can't ask Dell because i didnt buy it knew. i am totally lost. I think but iam not sure that iam running Windows XP. please tell me how i can fix this. THANK U
