I lost my computer user password. ~help!~?

Question

I have an HP 900 series laptop with windows vista. I made a pasword a week ago and now has gotten lost. Even the pasword hint is useless. Are there any ways to gain access back to my administrator account?? can anyone give me step by step instructions? there must be an override code of some sort? help me please. I need to get it fixed for school.

Answer 1

this work's for win XP,

it should work for vista.

when you see the login screen press ctrl alt delete twice.

another login screen should come up: type in administrator in the top and leave the password blank: press login, and if it doesn't work I'm sorry!

Answer 2

If there's another account on the laptop, then log into that.

Go to Start and find 'Run', and type in "control userpasswords2".

From there you should be able to reset anyone's password on the computer.

If there isn't another user, then sorry but i have no idea.
