Hi, our company has folded and I have been given 2 x Dell Laptops that were going to get scrapped, both working. They both on boot up after windows boots, they go to the ctrl-alt-del login page with old company logo screen with some persons from years ago. How can I get this login screen off/disabled so I can use the laptops please? I cannot get in to windows desktop at all because of these Company Logo login screens?
I have tried safe mode but as soon as Windows has loaded it goes to the login screen again.

I have seen a few youtubes regards hard shutdown and restart where it goes through stuff then reboots. On booting to the login screen you then tap the shift key 5 times to get the cmd window up but no how I try that just gives me the "sticky keys" choice window?
Can anyone shed any light please?

One way is to use bootable media to create another partition, then clean install onto that new partition.

What is the exact model?

Do they have a coa sticker ( often in the battery compartment) ?

Is it the win7 enterprise in your system specs that is currently installed - or something else?

When you say lock screen is it asking to login to a domain normally there is an option to login local

It is win7 Enterprise on both. It is the Company logo login username and password to get into the laptops, it comes up on safe mode also so I cant get into them that way either to maybe disable login screen requirement?

You use boot media e.g. windows installation media, boot that, then open cmd, type regedit and proceed as per the tutorial.

Thanks

I shall try this at weekend If I can get into the bios to change boot settings, I guess that could be the next issue as almost everything we could do was restricted as users and needed the Administrator to do it. I will try though, thanks

simple things like opening the .cmd prompt can only be done by the Admin and the hit shift 5 times does nothing except of "Sticky Keys" pop up
