REMOVE 98se PASS-WORD

Hello All,

I have an older Dell that I got from some 1. When I boot this PC up......this window comes up with the person's name and a "blank" pass-word".some thing like logging on to Micrsoft Network. (there is no network that I know of) Is there any way to disable this.

Basically, I want 98se with-out any pass word !!!!


Any suggestions ??

 

dr911,

Do you know how to use the Find function ???

Start button > Find > File or folder

When you get to search C:\> drive "enter" the following

*.pwl

This will show the passwords now installed -- "Delete" ALL that you find.

NEXT TIME you boot up just hit the <Enter> key -- DO NOT enter any "new" passwords.

IF you get this far. post back for one more step. [Change to "Windows Logon"]

 

Thanks Old Bob,

That seemed to work..............what's the other step ??

 

dr911,

The final step is:

Open the "Control Center" and click on the "Network" icon.

In the center of the window that opens is a small window labeled "Primary Network Logon".

If necessary, change this to "Windows Logon", Windows should now boot up directly to the desktop.

 

Thanks for all the info.......Old Bob !!!

Every thing worked out fine.
