SOURCE: By-pass windows' screensaver password

it's either you wanna bypass windows password (that is the screen that comes up everytime you turn on your computer and its asking for a password), or you wanna remove the screen saver password. im posting the solutions for both:

a. to bypass windows password:

  1. click on start then go to control panel
  2. click on user accounts
  3. click on remove password
b. to remove the screen saver password:
  1. minimize all applications/programs that are currently running on your computer until you can only see your desktop
  2. right click on any open area on your desktop
  3. click on properties
  4. go to the screen saver tab
  5. uncheck the box that says, "on resume, display welcome screen"
  6. hit apply then ok.
that should solve the problem. if you still got the same problem, let me know.

Disable Screen Saver Passwords loadTOCNode(2, 'summary'); To make screen saver password locks unavailable, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. Type mmc, and then click OK to start the Microsoft Management Console (MMC). 3. On the Console menu, click Add/Remove Snap-ins, and then click Add. 4. Click Group Policy, and then click Add.

The Select Group Policy Object dialog box appears. If you want to apply this policy only to your computer, make sure that your local computer is listed in the Group Policy object, and then click Finish.

Alternatively, if this will be an Active Directory policy, click Browse, select the site, domain, or organizational unit to which you want this policy to apply, and then click Finish.
5. Click Close. 6. Expand User Configuration, and then expand Administrative Templates. 7. Expand Control Panel, and then click Display. 8. In the right pane, double-click Password protect the screen saver. 9. Click to select Disable on the Policy tab.

SOURCE: dell latitude c610 primary or administraitor password unlock

I believe I can help you. Is this a Windows password after it boots up, or is this a bios power on password before it boots? The bios password on a Dell is generally on a white screen when it's first powered. Get back to me, and I'll get you thought this.

DELL XPS M140 MXC051 LAPTOP BIOS PASSWORD

Most laptop or notebook computers feature enhanced BIOS security, and BIOS passwords on laptops are hard to bypass. Several companies offer laptop security chip services that can be used to bypass the BIOS password on Dell laptops or notebooks and reset the security. They can provide a master password from the Dell Service Tag of your Dell laptop. This master password will allow you to bypass the existing password and enter the BIOS and reset the unknown password. To generate the master password they need to know the Dell Service Tag of your unit. Dell Master Password Recovery does not require soldering or disassembly of the laptop and supports most Dell models.

Dell BIOS passwords can also be reset by replacing the laptop security chip. Passwords can also be recovered from security chips that have been removed from laptop or notebook systems. These passwords may be required to attempt to unlock protected hard disks. Passwords recovered from these chips are the original BIOS passwords and may be the same as the hard disk password, but are not guaranteed to be the same and may not unlock the hard disk.These are usually damaged in the process of recovering the passwords and are not suitable for replacement into a computer.

I can't boot up coz of the white screen it gives

You will have to reinstall the OS, if you have the disks. Only hacking will help. There is no sane solution to passwords. Either supply the correct one or hack into it and the manage or re-install the OS.
