When I try to run the recovery console and get to the part to enter
the admin password,
I enter my password but it is not accepted (password incorrect) and
after 3 trys it reboots.
My password is correct, but the administrator acct is a proper name
and I can't change the
name, can change password but this still gets (password incorrect)
and after 3 trys it reboots.
How can I fix or bypass this problem?
There are different types of administrator passwords. You're probably
thinking of Windows Administrator & what they're asking for is System
Administrator password. The only time this is usually seen is during
the install of XP & is NOT listed under users in XP. Most people
leave the pwd blank which of course is not a good idea but try that.
Put nothing on the password line.
