Finding the default Administrator Password

Does anyone know where in the documentation that came with this new Dimension 4600 do they tell me the password to the Admistrator account? I've e-mailed Dell support but they haven't replied yet.  Thanks.

Unless you set it, it should be blank.

bg7668,

If you are able to log on to Windows you can set it to anything you wish. See this.

If the use of Recovery Console doesn't accept  blank default Administrator password you can set Auto Logon to Recovery Console , so it doesn't request default Administrator password.

Use  regedit   &  navigate to  HKEY
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Setup\RecoveryConsole

set  "SecurityLevel     to  ..........(1)       for    Auto  Logon.
set  "SetCommand"   to  ..........(1)       for   access to all partitions  using Recovery Console.
