Hi: I am sorry that I send that message a second time I was using my wireless laptop at my sister's place I thought it didn't go through I see when I was checking my email it did go through. I still would like an answer though -- thank you -Jackie My sister bought a used computer it has windows 2000 pro I can't get in because it has a password at the logon- how can I get passed this without doing wiping it out ? It loads up very good-- -- -------list-services-below----------- Regards, John Durham (list moderator) <http://modecideas.com/contact.html?sig> Freelists login at //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi List archives at //www.freelists.org/archives/pchelpers PC-HELPERS list subscribe/unsub at http://modecideas.com/discuss.htm?sig Latest news live feeds at http://modecideas.com/indexhomenews.htm?sig Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
