unlocking computer
Does anyone know how to override a blocked computer. I locked my computer
with a password a year ago and do not remember what the pass word. Am told that I have to wipe out the hard and start over and would rather not lose all that is on my computer. |

unlocking computer
There are several ways of unlocking your PC, you'll find them under 'Lost
password' on the internet. Often they involve using a boot DVD from which you can acess your drives. Personally I use ERD Commander or Knoppix.
