    I tried to use the PC_LOGIN_NOW free program to by-pass the administrator password on a computer I purchased for $20.00 from my now defunct previous employer. Of course, they didn't provide me with the OS disks, neither was the IT person available anymore to discuss the problem with. I had no success in doing so although the program went through the different stages and announced success. The computer is still locked out for me and is not worth more than a 'door-stop' at this time.
    I later notices that the description of the program (PC_LOGIN_NOW) doesn't contain XP professional, which is what I have on this computer. I wonder if this may be the reason.
    I will appreciate anyone's help in this regard.
    Thank you,
    OD

    PC Log In Now Problem

    Thanks Regina. I tried the site you mentioned before I attempted the current PC log Me Now offering. It is a lot more complicated and, likewise, didn't solve my problem.
    Do you think it is due to the fact I have XP-Pro?
