I'm struggling to log on as an administrator when starting in safe mode,
seems I need a password, and have naturally forgotten it, assuming I made one in the first place ? I normally log on as a user/administrator when windows start normally, but my password for that does not work in safe mode/administrator Ideas welcome please XP Pro sp1 and sp2 Bob |
