well first im new to this place so greetings everyone. i currently have an hp laptop, windows xp pro. the computer was given to me after my father passed away. ive had this thing sitting in the closet for months now and i just decided to start tinkering with it. im however at a loss because i can't access anything without passwords or account names. ive tried everything all over the web and am at a loss to getting into this thing. ive tried just typing administrator but it would appear that account has been set with a password. i have no cd's with the computer and no way to just reformat it and start fresh. any suggestions out there? thanks in advance.
