BIOS ADMIN OR WINDOWS? NO OS stated at all
and Dell ships with many OS.
we can not see your screen at all
no photos of any failing screen means it can be 2 things, BIOS PW or WINDOWS PW;.
only dell can reset BIOS , we can not,
nor is it legal for me to try.
Dell.com is the maker ask them to cure this.
the windows pass words resets get harder by each newer OS, all are geek easy until windows 8 up.
no posted screen by you , NO JOY.
dell will make you prove you own the PC before telling you the reset secret.
this old PC, 12 years old today.
BIOS ADMIN lost. PW.
if you are geek like we open the left side lid, and look at the mobo, the motherboard PCB, and find pw_rst pins.
mine has many jumpers on I it.
first I replace that RTC Coin cell battery
or the BIOS will go nuts, infact so nuts the PC thinks PW is set, and is not, so
if the battery is below 2.9v then you need a new battery FIRST< as they say first things first. on any 5 year life battery,
ok the 530 comes on like 6 versions, 530 ,530a, to S
the 530 base no letter at the end.
is here.
if you read the manual at dell. the pin jumper is labeled.CLEAR_PW (bios

    the jumper is shown as jumper 12. at dell

    here is the page (real dell real books)
    https://downloads.dell.com/manuals/all-p...

    if you question was how to reset windows 10 logins, that is a totally different answer.

    we have lots of dell PCs workstations and servers here. so, can answer, on experience.

Use this tool (https://www.hirensbootcd.org/old-versions/) , bootable CD or USB, tons of tools inside including password recovery or create new Admin then reboot and using the new admin from there you can access your admin account to reset the password.

SOURCE: dell inspiron 5150 laptop, reset admin. password.

Restart your laptop and keep tapping F8 key the moment you see something on the screen. You will get a black screen with some options written in white. Select the option Safe mode and then you can create a new user with admin rights. Or else at the windows login screen press and hold ctrl and alt key and tap delete key twice and then it will take you to a login screen. Dont put any password there just hit enter. And you will be able to login with admin rights.

Thanks

WARNING: Some BIOS configurations will lock you out of the system completely if you type in an incorrect password more than 3 times. Read your manufacturers documentation for the BIOS setting before you begin typing in passwords.

Using the Motherboard "Clear CMOS" Jumper or Dipswitch settings

Many motherboards feature a set of jumpers or dipswitches that will clear the CMOS and wipe all of the custom settings including BIOS passwords. The locations of these jumpers / dipswitches will vary depending on the motherboard manufacturer and ideally you should always refer to the motherboard or computer manufacturers documentation. If the documentation is unavailable, the jumpers/dipswitches can sometimes be found along the edge of the motherboard, next to the CMOS battery, or near the processor. Some manufacturers may label the jumper / dipswitch CLEAR - CLEAR CMOS - CLR - CLRPWD - PASSWD - PASSWORD - PWD. On laptop computers, the dipswitches are usually found under the keyboard or within a compartment at the bottom of the laptop.

Please remember to unplug your PC and use a grounding strip before reaching into your PC and touching the motherboard. Once you locate and rest the jumper switches, turn the computer on and check if the password has been cleared. If it has, turn the computer off and return the jumpers or dipswitches to its original position.
Removing the CMOS Battery

The CMOS settings on most systems are buffered by a small battery that is attached to the motherboard. (It looks like a small watch battery). If you unplug the PC and remove the battery for 10-15 minutes, the CMOS may reset itself and the password should be blank. (Along with any other machine specific settings, so be sure you are familiar with manually reconfiguring the BIOS settings before you do this.) Some manufacturers backup the power to the CMOS chipset by using a capacitor, so if your first attempt fails, leave the battery out (with the system unplugged) for at least 24 hours. Some batteries are actually soldered onto the motherboard making this task more difficult. Unsoldering the battery incorrectly may damage your motherboard and other components, so please don't attempt this if you are inexperienced. Another option may be to remove the CMOS chip from the motherboard for a period of time.

Note: Removing the battery to reset the CMOS will not work for all PC's, and almost all of the newer laptops store their BIOS passwords in a manner which does not require continuous power, so removing the CMOS battery may not work at all. IBM Thinkpad laptops lock the hard drive as well as the BIOS when the supervisor password is set. If you reset the BIOS password, but cannot reset the hard drive password, you may not be able to access the drive and it will remain locked, even if you place it in a new laptop. IBM Thinkpads have special jumper switches on the motherboard, and these should be used to reset the system. Also, Hirens Bot CD has Bios password crackers too. Good luck.

If this helps you resolve your problem, please
consider giving a good rating and a quick thanks
or good job.It will help me as well Thank you.

SOURCE: hi I forgot DELL

To reset the BIOS read the information from this link.

In case of your Dell laptop the easiest method would be using software from Hiren's Boot CD as it's pretty hard to open it up and reach for the CMOS battery or the jumper.

I am locked out of my dell 1764 cause i forgot my admin password and its the only account i have running

There numerous ways to get around this all using the same type of software. Use another computer to burn password bypassing software. It's the easiest way believe it or not, otherwise you can try safe mode and make sure the admin your getting into is the actual true admin.

Hello,
If there is some other admin user on this computer you can ask him/her to login the change the password fro you. if not Windows is serious about security and that is fool proof you need to reinstall OS.
