I have a problem I have been working with a win2000 machine that I have where I connect my printer and the hard drive is like a backup to me, and I reset it yesterday and it is asking for a password now? What can I do to log in? Thanks.

Hi Juba.
First try by pushing ENTER when asked, if that don't work try typing Administrator. if that does not work, remove the Cmos Battery for a few minutes, that should do the trick and remove the old Password. Have a nice day.

Well I have done this, but the password is from the Win2000, and I put the administrator, and it does not have a password, what I did a couple of days ago is that I have added some users so I could print from these machines, let me know, thanks,

Well I want to know how to get in to the machine to use it again as I used to? Any ideas? Do I have to go in with the username I created or point me out what to do, thanks,
