Windows 2kPro – Bypass login? Re-install windows. No cd support.

by majikull . Updated 19 years, 4 months ago

I have a huge problem! I recently acquired an old pentium 3 Compaq. It had no display so I replaced the graphics card with a cheap ATI Rage 128. I was monkeying around with the settings and switched the existing computer name from Susan to Sheila (which is my aunt that i’m fixing this computer for). It said that I needed to reboot to make the change so I did.
Upon reboot, I got a login screen (which didn’t show up before). I never monkeyed with any profile settings or passwords. NOTHING WORKS. not even hitting esc or enter, administrator, sheila, or susan with all case variations imaginable. I was going to reform with my LEGIT windows 2kpro cd. Now when i go into bios settings there is no cd-rom option under boot order. I AM COMPLETELY STUMPED. I just want to erase EVERYTHING and install my legal version of 2kpro.

Any suggestions?
