Re: Administrator Password

Hello,

try booting into Safe Mode (press F8 before Windows starts). There, log on
using the standard Adminstrator built-in account and try changing your
password.

Hope this will help.
Greetings,

Hi Melanie,

It looks like you have only method two left to do in this tutorial, other than a reinstall of Vista.
