understand what is meant by Method 3. I will get back to that later, though.

Thanks for not asking me to re-load Vista.

Best regards

No, NO, Seeking. Not 2 admin passwords, 2 admin accounts with 2 different passwords. Method Three is the only option in that tutorial you can use. The other ones are NOT applicable to you. If you run into road block, post the question. Brink will be there to lead you along. He is the guru.
