Guest KB Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 changed the settings using the Network ID Wizard in Windows XP to " This computer is for home use and not part of a business network" to network it to my home laptop. Since then I cannot log on to my PC because it is not accepting my old password. Any suggestions -- I don't have the administrators logon. KB
Guest Kelly Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 Re: HELP! Can't logo to Windows XP Professional To gain access to the System default Admin account once hidden: On Pro Edition, from the Welcome Screen, press ctrl-Alt-Delete Twice. On Home, boot to Safe Mode, and logon. Tip: TweakUI/Logon/Show Administrator on the Welcome Screen http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp Or... Enable/Disable Administrator on Welcome Screen (Line 5) http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm Note: If you have disabled the built in administrator account, booting into Safe Mode will automatically enable it again (temporarily, for that Safe Mode session). Added note: If you want to logon to one of the other users, hold down shift as the system boots up. -- All the Best, Kelly (MS-MVP/DTS&XP) Taskbar Repair Tool Plus! http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/taskbarplus!.htm "KB" <KB@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7C96F963-169E-4CA4-8B35-39B1255903B3@microsoft.com... > changed the settings using the Network ID Wizard in Windows XP to " This > computer is for home use and not part of a business network" to network it > to > my home laptop.

Guest KB Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 Re: HELP!
