Urgent Help Needed

Silverdollar

Hi,

A few months ago we inherited a laptop knowing that the OH laptop was on it's last legs.
We have come to use the inherited laptop this morning and the OH can't remember the password to log on.
Is there anyway we can gain access Windows XP to enable us to format the drive and start all over again ?

Thanks in anticipation

Well if you wish to start all over again then insert the XP disc and have it bootup before the hardrive. Then you can format the drive and reinstall a fresh copy of XP

Sadly we don't have the original XP disc
