If you have exhausted all other solutions. Call Stone Systems and we have the Wyse software to re-image almost all of their models including the "S" and "V" class thin client terminal. We can even take units that nobody else can fix and return them to factory default.
Normally....$25.00 each

Thanks,

SOURCE: Laptops Acer e lock activated / password unknown

Fastest way slick and reinstall. That's why I never in 25 years of computer support never enabled passwords that deep. Some system have a hardware reset buried inside but it takes a tech to get to it. Some time removing the CMOS battery will do it. It would be easier to hack the OS and get into the Admin password than a hardware passwork.

SOURCE: resetting the password

Remove the battery . Short the grounding strips made for this purpose on the mother board,or the battery terminals,if you can't find the strips.  Reinsert the battery and the pass word will be gone.

SOURCE: sister has forgotten password

Hi,

If she cannot remember the password you can reset it. This will require a seperate computer with a CD burner and a blank CD to make a bootable disk, then simply follow the instructions on the page linked below.

Before resetting the password check the lights for your keyboard though. You may have your number lock turned on which will turn 789UIOKJLM into 7894561230 creating a number pad on your keyboard. If this is the case find the key marked "num lk" if it is the same colour as the letters pressing it should disable the number pad, if it is surrounded by a line or a different colour you will need to hold down the Fn key then press num lk to enable/disable the numberpad, you should see a light with a picture of a lock come on and off to denote number pad on or off. Ensure it is off then retry logging on with her password. If it still doesn't work, then procede to the link below and follow the instructions carefully.

SOURCE: MPC desktop, can not log into windows, need sys restore guide

If there is nothing on the computer you need, reinstall windows. You can boot to the CD and install windows without logging in.

Press the F12 key when the comptuer first comes on to select Boot from CD.

What version of WIndows are you running?

Hope this helps. Please rate and comment if it does.
Thanks,
Oz

SOURCE: I dont know my password

Is this the login password, the system password, or the hard disk drive password? If it is just the login password then try logging in to safe mode. When you reboot your computer hit the f8 key until it goes into the different logins menu. Select safe mode and go in and either change the password or create a new account without a password and give it administrative rights. Now you can reboot your computer to normal windows mode and change, add, or delete usernames/passwords. If the problem is the system/cmos password or the hard drive password, contact your system manufacter's website (i.e. www.hp.com, www.dell.com, etc.) and find out if it is possible to do this. Some systems allow you to reset it by removing and replacing the cmos battery. Others require you to contact the manufacturer through their outlets and provide a receipt for you computer before the can reset it for you. It just depends on what kind of laptop you have. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I have a Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5130 and my 10 year old was playing on it and some how he changed my password so now i am not able to access my laptop is their a master password that i can use

Go to Microsoft Support and get a fix.

If you forget your Windows password or if your password expires, you must reset your password before you can log on to your computer.
You can reset your password, if one of the following condition is true:
  • You can log on as an administrator to assign a new password to your account. To do this, try Method 1.

    Note When we install Windows, it automatically creates an account "Administrator" and sets its password to blank.
  • You have previously created a password reset disk for the computer. To do this, try Method 2.
If you do not have a reset disk or cannot log on as an administrator, unfortunately, you may have to reinstall Windows XP and all other programs that were installed on the computer before you can use the computer again. This is for security. Without these safeguards, anyone could reset a password to anyone else's computer and gain access to private information.

I forgot my windows logon password of my laptop. What should i do to get access to my laptop, then?

I think probably the easiest and safest wayfor you is remove your windows password with Windows Password Seeker. I found it at about.com PC support channel last week, and used it to remove the lost passwordwithin 5 minutes. Importantly, the useful tool no need to reinstall Windows. It's worth a try.

Hi, my daughter has a dell inspiron 1501 used from my sister. and well it was working fine . then we did not have it on for while and now when it comes on asking for the password it doesnt work. we use all...

When your computer boots and the login screen appears press control(ctrl) + alt + delete twice. This will bring up a window asking you for your username and password.
Type "administrator" without the quotes as the username and leave the password field blank. Press OK.
When you are logged in as an administrator change the password for your old username using control panel>user accounts.

If this doesn't work then you need to reset the administrator password. Visit this link -> >LINK<
