I just bought a new dell inpiron notebook. With it I got the Dell Photo Printer 720. To install new hardware on my computer I need a password, because I need to be a member of the administrators of my computer. However, I have no idea how to find this password. PLease help me.
Thanks a lot.

You have a named account which is an administrator account. When you are logged on in that account go to Start|Control Panel|User Accounts. Click on your account name and on the dialog that opens select "Create a password."
The System Administrator account should have a null (blank) password but many Dell systems do not as they were set up using Sysprep. To make sure you know what the Administrator password is, you can change it to a known value (blank if you choose) using the procedure here.
