Method three - a hiccup
Mr. Brink sir - I'm fairly saavy. I was following your instrucitons on Method Three for forgotten password but ran into a snag. I'm working on getting into my wife's new ACER ASPRIRE ONE. It comes with Windows 7 Starter version. I went through the setup steps, set a password, then logged off. Upon trying to login the computer is telling me I forgot the password. I tried method three. As you know the little ACER's don't have a CD drive so I followed instructions for USB drive. I burned the CD with Roxio then tried to copy all the files to a USB stick on the root; however, one of the eleven files that I need is displaying a file name that is just a square. I think that means the character(s) in the file name are for some reason foreign to my computer's OS (I'm running XP on a Dell Precision M90). So my computer won't let me copy that file. The error I get is: "Cannot copy []: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." Please help. Thank you sir. ~ guido
