| | | | Can anyone help. My has has for some reason re-set his Administrator
password and forgotten what he set it to (don't you just love em) I have the
Vista disc but don't know how to reload vista as when I try it still asks for
the Admin password. All he can do as work on the internet as everything else
asks for this password. I am afraid to experiment in case I mess everything
up although he doesn't have anything saved or in files as he only had the
system at Christmas. We got it from Mesh but I have tried without success to
get help from their helpline, in fact I can't even get my calls answered.
Any help would be gratefully received.

In short, boot from the DVD, choose Repair Option in the lower left corner
and follow the screens to the Repair Options.
Choose System Restore and Restore to a date before the administrator
password was changed.

Hi Chezchat,
In addition to CharlesE's post, this tutorial will show you a few
methods to reset the password so you can gain access again. If the
System Restore does not help (Method 5), then you may have to do Method
3.
