My armada e500 will turn on, do the little compaq sign then just stay on a blank screen and won't do anything further. HELP!!!!

Agree to use your installation CD.

Hello.

You can create from another computer and run a Password Reset disk.

Download and burn to CD. Copy/paste this link:
http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/cd080802.zip

Download this file and burn it to a CD.

Put into drive and turn on PC. Boot from your CD.

Follow instructions, choose the correct USER and BLANK out the password.

Make sure you say OK to write the data, and reboot.

The Administrator logon password will now be blank.

Note: Substitute a flash drive for CD, if your system doesn't have a CD drive.

Hope this helps.
