logging in to second hand Pc

mavon

I bought a pc in car boot and It seems to be fine but here`s the problem.
There are 4 user accounts on the opening screen asking for passwords.
Is there a way for me to somehow log on and change the account ?

OP may wish to see what juicy data has been left by previous owner

Just download a copy of Ophcrack. It's free and very easy to use. You will be able access all the accounts with ease. I've used it on a PC that someone gave to me but they couldn't remember the password.

Hiren's bootCD has a much easier password remover on it that Ophcrack, Offline NT Password Editor (or Remover, can't remember OTTOMH) is accessed from the main menu during the bootup and is a doddle

The OP can remove all the user account passwords in one session and then the pc is yours to access and do what you will with

Sounds like a faulty CD drive then if it's not reading any discs. No comment on its car boot origin!
