Compaq hotkeys don't work. OS Windows 2000.

Given the first solution I received I should add the following account that my operating system is Windows 2000, which is not listed on the page I was asked to go to to get my solution.

The hotkey functions have never worked and I can find no options to activate them; neither does the manual indicate that this should be necessary. Similarly, the four buttons above the hotkeys for quick internet access, search etc have never worked. Can I correct this?

I was given a compaq computer running Windows XP. It boots up to a previous user and is looking for that user's password. How can I reset password or access administrator account?

I would suggest you to try the following :

Boot the computer in safe mode.
Press F8 while booting the system, It will give you Windows Advance boot option, Select Safe mode and press Enter. You will see two accounts, Administrator and the Previous User's . Select the Administrator. If it allows you to log in, go to control Panel, User Accounts and delete the previous user's account and create a New user with your name. Reboot the computer in normal mode.

Hope this works. Please let me know if you need further Assistance. Your comments and ratings are highly appreciated.

Thank you for choosing Fixya
