I have a dellcs 400 St that I got from an auction. Well lord and behold it has a adminastrator password at start up. How do I bypass that? Or should I throw it away?
We can't help you bypass a security mechanism. But don't throw it away - just install a new OS on it. If you really want NT you can buy it for next to nothing nowadays.
You could try a System Restore to Factory settings. When the laptop boots, Hold the Ctrl Key and Press F11
That should work. to restore the original OS, which was probably Windows 2000.
