    u know, u cannot mix women and mice...


    however they love those small cats... cats and mice are both small hairy mammals... where is the difference?



    even cats love mice ^^



    well... who can understand women?

  • need to hack an account

    mmm, the repair process most times doesnt allows to reset admin


    password i think... anyways, i think also in some comps it could allow... usually the best


    admin password for most computer owners is no password at all, so i usually dont care too


    much about the admin password screen during repair/reinstall (u know, the nextnextnext


    syndrome) :rolleyes:


    the program i pointed in the other post allows to reset any


    users password, including admin

  • need to hack an account

    its


    part of my job to do that stuff and i repair 2 or 3 systems each week :) and definitevely it


    works... sometimes...


    the repair proccess is in fact a reinstall process in wich


    part of the registry (including the part regarding the installed software) is not


    deleted.
    its specially useful when the mainboard or any other main component of the


    computer is replaced... it allows u to keep ur old system working in the new system without


    reinstall the software or removing ur data


    its main goal is not to remove old


    passwords, but, as many other windows install process, usually ends with the "users setup"


    screen, where u can add new users (although it can vary depending on the version used and


    the users config in the previously installed OS)


    on the other hand, it is a long


    process (as long as a full reinstall of XP) and it can fail if the hardware in the comp is


    not so standard and includes some exotic drivers... (usually TV cards are problematic)
    if


    it fails the only way is to reinstall from scratch, formatting the HD...


    for mechs


    case i think this repair is only a "last resource", to be tested only if he cannot find a


    software capable to recover the password in an easier way...

  • need to hack an account

    jtak gave a very interesting website and u probably will find some


    software that allows u to recover the password


    anyways, if everything fails, and


    before formatting, try this:
    just boot from a XP disk. the second time it asks about


    repairing system press R. the repairing proccess will start. the screens u can see are quite


    similar to those in the windows install proccess, but unlikely to there, all the info and


    config of ur comp will remain usable (including installed software and drivers). at the end


    u will be able to choose a new admin password and to create new (admin)users
    its very


    important that the XP version u have in the comp matches the one in the CD (u cannot repair


    an XP Pro with a XP Home disk or a XP Home with a XP Pro disk)
    mmm, and take some


    coffee... it will take an hour or so...


    good luck ;)
