Password Error
Hello
I have a large problem since setting up a password on a Compaq notebook. It is the password that is invoked when the computer comes back on after power save shutdown. I know the password I am using is correct but the computer will not recognise it. I have tried many times in both ordinary & safe mode. As a result I cannot start the computer, have tried booting with set up disks, a "rescue disk" created by my anti-virus software and a Win98 startup disk. The very first screen that appears is the "Enter Password" one and I cannot get any further. I am wondering if there is any solution - any help much appreciated. The notebook is a Compaq Armada 7400 (Series6366/T14/10.0/V/M/1), 192Mb RAM, Pentium 2, 3 gig hard disk space left, Windows 98 (not 98SE). Thanks in advance.
