my brother set the password into my laptop. how can i reset the password? i have a hp mini laptop without cd rom. i've tried safe mode, take out CMOS battery, i tried to open hidden admin (like windows xp do) but all are disappointed... please help me. if there any option that no need to burn a cd (like burn ophrack or etc password reset software) i'll much appreciate... tq...

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.

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.

Afterwards, you should be able to do this.
