What OS are you having?

Follow the instruction to reset windows password

On XP you can try this:
Boot computer and press Ctrl+Alt+Delete twice when you See Windows welcome screen / login screen. It'll show classic login box. Now type "Administrator" (without quotes) in username field and leave password field blank, press Enter and you should be able to login Windows. Now you can reset your account password from "Control Panel -> User Accounts".

On Win 7 or Vista:
Ctrl+Alt+Delete won't work, you have to use some windows password recovery software. I recommend Windows Password Reset

How to change password Ubuntu?

Go to Administration and then user accounts. If you cant find administration just search for user accounts and it should pop up. Once in user accounts you might need to unlock it by clicking on the unlock button on the top right, if you do please unlock it or you will not be able to change the password. You can unlock it by entering in an administrator password. Then highlight the user account you want to change the password on. Then click on the password then fill out the menu and you should be able to change your password.

Eee pc hard drive lock

Asus Eee PCs run on the Windows XP SP2 operating system. Accounts in Windows XP SP2 can easily be password-protected, but the same password can just as easily be forgotten.


At moments like this, you'll wish you had chosen a password that is both secure and easy to remember, or kept a record of it in a private place.


The quickest way to get back on the computer is to seek out someone with an administrator account on the computer.


Press "Control" + "Alt" + "Delete" at the same time on the locked screen.

Select "Switch User."


Remember, only an administrator account registered on this computer can unlock the computer.


Type in "administrator" in the user name box.


Type the password that corresponds to the administrator user name in the password box .


Click "OK." The Asus Eee PC is unlocked.


Hope this helps

Locked computer

Bugsy, just in case-have you tried without a password? By pressing and holding down the power button 5+ secs will power down the machine. Removing the battery will shut it down too. The issue is "will you still be locked out when you reboot?" You should try starting in safemode when you reboot (pressing F8) during the initial boot process and see if you can log in as administrator(no password). If you can access safemode try to reset the administrators password in user accounts. Let me know if you've made any progress. Tim
