I bought this computer at a school auction and it has a network password on it how do i get it off or find out the password. I was told that they were suppose to reformat it before they sold it but they didn't and now i have the computer at home and can't use it. I tried to reformat it but it won't let me do nothing cause it keeps asking for the network password. It won't even boot into safe mode. It is running windows 98. Thanks for your help as I need to finish this so i can give it to my nephew for his birthday.

Usually Windows 98 does not have a password issue. Don't enter the password, simply press the 'Esc' button and you should be able the access the system.

If this didn't work, you'll need a windows98 installation CD. Boot up the system using the win98 cd and reinstall. During the installation process format the harddisk using FAT32.

Hope this answers your question, if not let me know the errors that you received. Lets take if from there. Good luck.
