Lost Windows Password - Can't reboot
Hi,I bought this laptop about 3 years ago. I set up a BIOS Password and a Windows Login password.One day, I shut down my computer and when I opened it, there was a little rectangular pop-up asking for my password. (BIOS) Even if I push F2, It asks for a password.I loaded and burned a program from www.download.com (I dont remember which) and I succesfully bypass the BIOS password by putting the CD in the laptop and while typing really fast my (password...which I dont know) lol. And windows loaded. Now I am stuck on Windows Login screen. I don't know my password because it's been 2 years since I typed it. I tried finding it for 5 hours now. Is there a way to Bypass this password WITHOUT rebooting (I don't think I can bypass the BIOS password so easily again) and I do not have a recovery disk.Thank you for helping me.
