Microsoft locks up the computer waiting for a password. Iused the three
finger salute to bring up the window (Cntrl,Alt,Delete) It turns out there
is no password so pressing return closes the darn thing. I have set up my
own password and then changed it to no pw. Go to cntrl pnl,user accounts
Select acct name andclick on Creat a Password. Remove pw later if desired.
PS this did not stop the ugly hangup especially trying to come out of
hibernation Let me know if this helps
