My 11 year old son forgot his password and I am aving geat difficulty helping him get into his computer. I have read your answer to forgotten passwords and it appears very helpful, I will get started on it as soon as I find the discs required !
I have checked in the manual of my computer for a remedy to this problem. I have a different computer to my son, my son's is a Fujitsu-Siemens; mine is a Dell. In the manual to my computer it says you can remove the jumper PSWD cable on the system board. Would you also recomend this option. If so do you know where I can get a copy of a Fujitsu Siemens technical manual (not operating manual) so that I can recognise the PSWD within my sons computer (Or will it be labelled?).
In my manual it states you can disconnect all power and turn off and disconnect any attached devices; thenopen the computer cover, locate and disconnect the PSWD and remove it from its socket. Then, replace cover, and switch on computer, this process erases the password. Then, switch of computer disconnect from electric supply, then open up computer cover, rconnect PSWD cable. Then replace cover, reconnect power and attachments.......computer is now ready to use. WOW! thats easy...!!!
