I know this sounds very stupid, but I need help to get onto my laptop. i
recently changed the password on the startup screen needed in order to get
onto my computer and when i resarted my laptop I forgot the password. This
means I cannot get onto my laptop to access anything except the startup
screen. i really do need help so please if you know a solution to the
problem, can you tell me !

If you remember the old password, try this method:

you cannot get into vista, how could you forget your password?

the old alt-ctrl-del option is no longer valid in vista

you can however use a linux bootable cd like pclinuxos to access and save
your data to another drive- flash -drive

You've gotten good advice about getting into Vista, but this post reads to
me like you set a BIOS password and forgot it. A BIOS password requires you
to enter the password before the computer will even boot the operating
system (Vista). Is this what you did?

If you set a BIOS password, either post back with the make/model of the
laptop or call the laptop mftr.'s tech support for instructions. Some
laptops will allow you to get around the BIOS password by performing some
special software actions but others require reprogramming of a physical
chip on the motherboard and therefore need to go back to the mftr.

Let us know.

Rubbish.

Hello dear pea brained IDIOT, read on this page that I am correct as always

"The classic logon screen is no longer available in Vista. It's possible to
set the require CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on, but pressing these keys will still
take you to the standard Welcome screen. "

you can enable this however but that user has not

here is how... Mr IDIOT

"in the search box type: netplwiz and click
the icon that pulls up. Hit advanced, and hit the check box that says:
require users to press CTRL + ALT + DEL, then press ok. "


I lost more time educating ignorant computer illiterate fools that call
themselves "guru"

ARSWIPE!

Only a "dear pea brained IDIOT" would rely on a wanky website to support his
bullshit argument instead of going the thinking man's way; exercising
considered thought and intensive experience to the problem. Hey, that's you.
"The classic logon screen is no longer available<BITCHSLAP>

You will note the subtle difference between "The classic logon screen is no
longer available" and your statement, "the old alt-ctrl-del option is no
longer valid", both of which are incorrect statements. Or do you need me to
enlighten that less than useless pig trough you want call a brain?

False. If "Interactive logon: Do not require CTRL+ALT+DEL" is disabled, and
if "Interactive logon: Do not display last user name" is enabled, then...

You can work out the rest, can't you, pissbrain?

Go on, try it. Then come back trying to claim that the jazzed up graphics
Vista uses to represent the old classic logon justifies every single,
stinking dribble of bullshit you conjured up from inside your defective
imagination.

That's your personality defect that you're going just have to learn to live
with, junior. Do you blame your parents, or just your shoeless, tatty
rag-clothed, Ukranian gypsy mother for pulling trains with whole divisions
of intellectually disabled Russian infantry?
that call themselves "guru"

Erm... Guru is what my Uttar Pradeshi parents named me. Guru, as in Guru
Sandaramurthy, you grasping, brain dead toad.

Nice sig. It suits you to T.
