original title:system administrator passwordI reset my only administrator password. On the password change screen it lets you put in numerous characters. I used a password that contained 12 characters. on the login screen there is only 11 spaces available for your password and i cant log in. is there a solution for this???

You can type all 12 characters, even though only 11 dots will appear on the screen.Boulder Computer MavenMicrosoft Most Valuable Professional
