Thanks Glo , I will give it a try :) Faythe ~ Faythe, I solved this problem by doing the same things you did, but instead of 'restart' do a cold boot. It took one or two times of shutting the computer all the way off and then the password thing disappeared. That's how I did it and Lionel did it that way too and it worked.
