SOURCE: cant get into safe mode. tried toggling f8/f7 together but nothing

the key to getting into safe mode....tapping F8 (only that key) super fast, not stopping until you hear a beep...and see the option to boot into safe mode.  The most common reason that it will not work is that it is not pressed fast enough or early enough.  You will know that you missed your chance if you see the windows loading screen......start pressing it right away when you restart your computer and don't stop pressing F8 until you see the black screen with the white letters giving you the option to boot into safe mode.  
Good Luck!

SOURCE: I forgot my password. I have bought a recovery

Sounds like your computer is protect with a BIOS password. A BIOS password is a protection measure that can be used to stop someone powering up a computer system or making changes in some of the computers most sensitive areas. That's why the CDROM has been disabled and you can not run the recovery disk.

As a computer enthusiast, it is possible to reset the BIOS password but could be potential fatal to your notebook if you don't know what your doing.

Here is a method to bypass or remove a BIOS password.

Note: Make sure you are working in a static free environment before opening up your computer.

The simplest way to remove a BIOS password is to simply remove the CMOS battery. A computer will remember its settings and keep the time even when it is turned off and unplugged because these parts are powered by small battery inside the computer called a CMOS battery.

If you pull out this battery, the computer will forget alot of its hardware settings, including its BIOS password.



pcj141414_0.jpg




Open up the computer case using a screw driver and locate the flat, circular and metallic CMOS battery. It should look something like the picture above.

There are many different ways to remove a CMOS battery but the most common way on newer computers can be seen in the picture below.

pcj141414_1.jpg

The computer must not be able to get power from anywhere for this to work so make sure its unplugged from everything.

Take out the CMOS battery and wait 10 - 25 minutes before putting it back in. The reason for this wait is because the computer can still store power in its capacitors even though everything is unplugged. The waiting period allows enough time for them to discharge.
Plug everything back in, power up the computer and enter the BIOS again. If everything went well there should be no more password. In some cases, if you get weird error messages during bootup now, you will need to goto "Load BIOS Defaults" in BIOS and save the changes to fix them.

Enjoy, Have Fun and Don't Stress.

Reset password on windows 7

OK, if you are running Windows 7, Microsoft tightenedsecurity on it so you've got to have a password reset disk which 99% of thepeople who own laptops with windows 7 fail to do. It should be one of thefirst things you do when you buy the laptop. Otherwise, you're faced withreinstalling the Operating System or possibly doing a System Recovery.

If you're on Windows XP or Vista try this:

Turn off the computer, then hit the power button to turn it back on andimmediately start hitting the F8 key repeatedly until you see the Safe Modeoption. Select SAFE MODE and let the computer boot up. When it getsto the User Login screen it will show the Administrator userid and the useridfor which you forgot the password. Sign in as the Administrator (hopefullyyou didn't put a password on it and forgot it too). Once the desktopappears it will look different, the screen will be darker and the icons bigger,but this is normal for safe mode.

Click Start/Control Panel/User Accounts
When the User Accounts screen opens, click on the userid for which you forgotthe password. Select the option to REMOVE PASSWORD.

Reboot your machine.
There was a post on here where someone found a site that could remove the windows 7 password and you only paid them a donation fee if it worked. You might want to google windows 7 password removal for donation and see if you can find it. It worked for this person.
Actually I googled it for you and the links are below: Good luck!!!

I have a aspire acer 5520 laptop and lost my password. I have no disk to reset it and create a hole new user. what can I do?

Well, have not created reset disk before, you can try to reset windows password in safe mode, this method do not get help from other precondition.
Here are how it works:
First, restart your computer, keep pressing F8 before Windows loads, then select safe mode and enter, you will see the default administrator account appears in the login screen, click that account and enter your system, go to control panel to change your other account password. When it finishes, restart the computer, log in the related account with the newly created password.

And if you failed reset in safe mode, I recommend you use a windows password reset tool to create a reset disk, this method 100% guarantee.
The process isfollowing.
Step 1: Download the Windows Password Reset and burn a erasable CD/DVD, or USB
Step 2: Boot the CD into the ISO image which is provided by Windows PasswordReset
Step 3:BIOS settings
Step 4:Reset the Windows admin password.
Itis an easy-to-use way to reset the password. You can have a try.

I WANT TO LOG IN TOSHIBA TECRA 550CDT BUT I HAVE FORGOTTEN MY PASSWORD

start your computer in "safe mode" :

  1. Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer.

    Click the Start button 4f6cbd09-148c-4dd8-b1f2-48f232a2fd33.png, click the arrow next to the Lock button eb058ccf-b21e-4dfe-9bb7-1ad6c83b705c.png, and then click Restart.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you will need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.

    • If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

  3. On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the safe mode option you want, and then press ENTER. For more information about options, see Advanced startup options (including safe mode).

  4. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.

Depending on you operating system i.e. windows XP, 7 etc. you may not have a "lock" button described in STEP 1, just restart while holding down F8, once you are in safe mode you can go in to Administrator or any other account and reset your password

I forgot my administrator password

Forgetting your Windows administrator login password. With no way to get into the system, you can’t even perform basic maintenance, let alone a thorough tune-up. Formatting is always an option, but we consider that a last resort. (Plus, guess who’s going to have to help reinstall all the programs lost after a wipe?) But all hope is not lost. There are a few ways to actually retrieve a lost Windows account password. Read on, and we’ll show you the light.

1st Method:
The first thing which you check if you forget login password. When we install Windows, it automatically creates an account "Administrator" and sets its password to blank. So if you have forget your user account password then try this:
Start system and when you see Windows Welcome screen / Login screen, press ctrl+alt+del keys twice and it'll show Classic Login box. Now type "Administrator" (without quotes) in Username and leave Password field blank. Now press Enter and you should be able to log in Windows.
Now you can reset your account password from "Control Panel -> User Accounts".
Same thing can be done using Safe Mode. In Safe Mode Windows will show this in-built Administrator account in Login screen.

2th Method:
There are a lot of Windows password revealers and crackers available, but we’ve found that Windows Password Recovery Tool is the most effective.:
Windows Password Recovery Tool is one of the easiest password recovery tools to use. It allows you to reset a user account password, including the Administrator password. It is also a relatively small download.
