Help! I forgot my Windows XP Password
I cannot access my Dimension 2400 desktop because I forgot the password to the login screen. That is, when I turn on my PC, the login window displays which asks the user for username and password. I forgot my password and I cannot log on.
I don't remember if I created a pasword for an Administrator. Since I am not on a network, it is very unlikley.
Please tell me how do I reset my Windows XP password. A step-by-step procedure will be helpful. I am a novice. So, I don't know what Safe Mode is.
FYI: I do not have access to the Start button because I cannot log on.
I look forward to a quick reply.
Distressfully,
- Mike
