I don't see why its not letting you wipe it. You have shut down cleanly? Was it burnt correctly? I've -only- received that error when I hard shutdown. Never any other reason. If your following the instructions to the tee everything should fall into place. I'm sorry I haven't been much use, I haven't used that program in 4 months. -- CrucialHoax |

I think i'm going to try one of those password reset programs and see if they work? I Dont know what else to do at this point. So do they work or are they a waste of money? -- nickio04 |

Whoa whoa, don't buy anything, more than likely its a scam. Please, do NOT buy anything. Try using Ophcrack. It will crack the password and give it to you so you can sign in then change it from there. Only thing is, if you had symbols in the password it wont crack it. http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/ -- CrucialHoax |

You have no need to reinstall the vista system. *Windows password unlocker *helps to reset windows admin password with no data loss 1.Download Windows Password Unlocker from Password Unlocker Official site 2.Decompress the Windows password unlocker and note that there is an .ISO image file. Burn the image file onto an blank CD with the burner freely supported by Password Unlocker. 3.Insert the newly created CD into the locked computer and re-boot it from the CD drive. 4.After launched the CD, a window pop up with all your account names(if you have several accounts) select one of the accounts that you have forgotten its password to reset it.

There are a lot of tools and utilities that can be downloaded and used to recover, reset, retrieve or reveal existing password. These windows password recovery utilities, free or paid, are usually a Linux boot disk or CD that able to comes with NT file system (NTFS) drivers and software that will read the registry and rewrite the password hashes, or can brute force crack the password for any user account including the Administrators. The advantage is that there is no fear of leaking your password to outsiders, while the process requires physical access to the console and a floppy or CD drive, depending on which tool you choose. And it’s not easy, although it always work! Below is the most famous recovery tool I found: Windows Password Recovery Tool 3.0 – it is the most popular Windows password cracker . It is a very efficient implementation of windows any versions. It comes with a Graphical User Interface and runs on multiple platforms. Password Recovery Bundle –This is a utility to reset the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on your windows system. You do not need to know the old password to set a new one. It works offline, that is, you have to shutdown your computer and boot off a floppydisk or CD. It’ll detect and offer to unlock locked or disabled out user accounts. It is also an almost fully functional registry editor. Windows Password Key 8.0 -It is considered as the best tool to reset local administrator and user passwords on any Windows system. It creates a password recovery CD/DVD, USB Flash Drive for home, business and enterprise. And most of all, it's the most popular and safe solution for removing your Windows password until now. -- doctormrli ------------------------------------------------------------------------ doctormrli's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/188446.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-adm...ion/961749.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
