Hey, my youner brother got my Laptop on fire, he place an admin password and couldn't remember the password. How do I get the password off? It's a Dell Latitude D810. Please somebody help.

Get then to remove the password.

As for keeping your brother away from the computer I would suggest something like an Electric Fence but with different buttons electrified that should prevent him messing with it in the future. :D

You can change/reset the Administrator's password using special bootable disk (CD or USB flash drive):

This software can also unlock disabled/locked accounts, give Admin privileges to normal users, dump password hashes into the text file (for further recovery) and more.
