I Can't get into my own PC.

I need some password from five years back.
I tryed loading a CD floppy.
No such luck!


If I can't get into it I'll need to buy a new one.
Hope some IT guy has some ideas here at work.

I sign in and then signed back out??

Oh Bo.....ks..

Well, I guess that there's not much point in replying to that post, is there.

Let's hope that he can get back into it. Perhaps a wee dram or two forced down its throat might help ??

Passwords sound like such a good idea except when you have "senior moments". Too bad the world can't be totally honest, then we wouldn't need the #$^& passwords.

Ian, pay the money for a computer boff to come in and retrieve the password for you. Much cheaper than a new computer and not as inconvenient.

I had a little success but could not get sound or on the Internet.
Then back to square one

I have brought it into work where a very nice guy has said if you can't solve it bring it in and I'll get it back as it was for you.

Heres hoping!!

Now, hang about, let me get this straight....

You can't get into your computer but you are, obviously, reading this Forum and replying thereto.

And I thought that the days of Magic and Witchcraft were over....

Aaaahhh, now I've got it - you're using the Firm's machines and connectiions ??

Unfortunately, that's something that I was never able to do when I worked in a place that had such equipment. Bu..er !!!!

Anyway, Ian, Good Luck with getting your own machine up and running - economically.

Yes Ron.
My PC is still in hospital.
Looks like no one has had time to look at it yet.

6.15 Am and not much to do at this time of day.
Read the Metro {free paper} surf the internet.
ECT .

And I will not be able to do that after next week 22 May as I'm not allowed access as the man who had it has retired and we who are left are not getting access. B...oks..


Hope to have my own back by then.
