Default forgotten password - windows vista

Bren,

I had somewhat a similar problem when I was trying to change the login
password. It kept coming up and saying the new password was typed
incorrectly, so I figured it didn't take. The next time I logged on my pc,
it would not accept the old password, and I didn't bother remembering the new
one because it said it was incorrect. I had to call Dell, and we ended up
doing an unnecessary reloading of Windows, but it really just took doing a
system restore from an earlier date. You might try restoring the system from
an earlier date and see if that works. It did for me.. I hope this helps...

I forgot my password before.
and look through all the internet.
there are some methods I find.
You can access the Administrator account through the login prompt
without logging into safe mode. If the computer utilizes the welcome
screen instead of the standard NT domain login prompt, you can press
Ctrl + Alt + Del twice to get to the login prompt. This is only true if
you are running Windows XP Professional Edition. Windows XP Home Edition
will also allow you to use this method to log on.
If it doesn't work above , you can try to use 'windows password reset
6.0 ' (http://www.resetwindowspassword.com/)
to crack your windows password without erasing anything.
hope it can help you.
good luck.

don't worry,you can DIY a Windows password reset CD. There is an
*Windows password unlocker*.ISO image file integrated in the *windows
password unlocker*. Burn the .ISO file onto a blank CD with your
favorite burners or use the freely burner included in *windows password
unlocker*. With the newly created windows password reset CD, you can
*'reset windows password'
(http://www.passwordunlocker.com/products/wpu.html)* with our erasing
anything else

There is also a program called 'Ultimate Boot CD" you can either burn
this to a cd or copy to a flashdrive and boot to which ever you like.
