Question password bypass
I just purchased a display model from Circuit city, and They forgot to remove the password. The OS is Vista home Premium, is there any way to bypass this and remove the Circuit City user. The store is closed for the night, and I would really like to get this set up tonight.

I know with any NT kernal OS all password files are stored in a file called " SAM" but vista im still reading and getting to know so not 100% sure but so a search for that file "SAM".

If it does have it you need a SAM cracker. geee i havn't had to use one in so long so not sure whats out there now, google away i guess.

Also if you have admin rights you should just be able to remove it total.
