my pc is locked. when I switch it on a black screen appears asking for : Enter current password. I have no idea what my password was, how can I unlock this? please help
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU'RE HELP, BUT MY PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED... SOMEONE TOLD ME TO OPEN UP MY PC, LOOK FOR A COIN SHAPED BATTERY AND THEN TAKE IT OUT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN PUT IT BACK IN, WHICH I DID, THEN I SWITCHED THE PC BACK ON AND WHAALA, IT WORKED NO MORE PASSWORD ASKING BLACK SCREEN :) :) :)
is it before or after windows starts up? if its before then some set a system password in your bios. call your computer company and they will help you get it off. I could tell you but I don't know what type of computer or mother board you have
nope not at all, it's kinda like a black dos screen that opens requesting a password, I tried pushing the f8 button to log on in safe mode but not even that wants to open.
I was going to recommend cutting off the power supply, but there has to be a simpler way to talk her through this, lol
Have you tried logging in without a password? If no password has been entered, then it should just be left blank.
Is it allowing you to log on to different accounts or is there only one account?
DOS?
Oh dear...
Try hitting Esc, or typing in 'exit'.
yes, I have left it blank, but still does not want to work
