    Hi, welcome to the forums :)

    You should be able to follow the tutorial below which will allow you to get the Buit-In admin up and running. You can then use it to remove the password from any user account.

    User Account Password - Change from WinRE

    Hope it helps

    If you press F8 when booting you should get an option to Repair Computer, you can access it from there :)

    You could pick up a $50 External CD/DVD ROM Drive that connect's to the netbook via USB, and boot into the disk that way.

    Hello 7Loveme, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    If your computer supports booting from a USB key drive, then you can use OPTION TWO in the tutorial below to create a System Repair Disc to a USB key drive to use to boot with into the System Recovery Options screen.

    System Repair Disc - Create


    Afterwards, you should be able to do this.

    Hope this helps,

    I think i should. erm.. later on, i can use it for my self, format for other, and get money from them. hahaaa... anyway, how can i boot by using USB? i can rearrange the boot sequence to detect USB, but what do i need in my USB to make it boot? im so sorry im a new member of Learning-How-PC/Laptop-operate.... huhuuu...

    I like to try new thing. and now my new thing is, about laptop. TQ.
