you cant even run installed programs? Too Bad, maybe you need to take it to tech support somewhere.

But since you ask nicely, there is another way. Here ya go

create a boot cd (Win ME works fine) (bootdisk.com)

boot to the disk
at the command prompt type
fdisk
select all partitions and delete them 1 by one
that will get her back :^0

Ouch.... TR policy is to NOT assist in breaking , cracking, and or bypassing passwords. Even if this is legit, we can not tell...

that the only thing he's guilty of is being as dumb as he claims to be.

You shouldn't take advantage of the disadvantaged that way.

This would make a pretty funny commercial..

by lbrtymike78

So this is what you do? Make fun of people that are trying to get help. Keep cracking jokes!

by lbrtymike78

Whatever your problem is I hope you solve it. But thanks for your help

by 1bn0

that you are.

And always with a brand new account.

If you had any experience with this site you would know that.

Most of us have had the pleasure of dealing with the results of a stolen computer,notebook,pda whatever.

Emergency replacement (I need a new computer, RIGHT NOW, GOD DAMN IT!) of the missing equipment, cancelling remote access accounts. Filling out claim forms for insurance companies....

By not helping these types of criminals reap the benefit of there endevours we hope we are doing what we can to discourage the practice of stealing other peoples property.

If you have a legitimate right to the machine you are trying to access, please take it to a professional, AND PAY THEM FOR THE SERVICE! It won't cost you too much and while your there they can tell you how to set up your machine to prevent a re-occurance. While your at change HER account to limited!

I am not a thief! This is my computer, I've had it for years. I just have a really immature girlfriend that don't think before she does! I understand what your saying and i guess this may look funny but I honestly am not a criminal that has a stolen computer. Just a dumb azz that has a ignorant girlfriend!

The more you fight it, the more people will mess with you... Take it to a PC repair shop, they should be able to help you...

Just prove it though and at the same time as this is a Public Site prevent any of the many thieves from accessing the answer that we provide here and using it to help them in their Ill Gotten Gains.

Get the point yet You can not prove that you own this to my satisfaction and you certainly [b]Can Not[/b] stop the thieves from reading any responses posted here. This is a Professional Site and as such you need to understand that you get professional responses within the limits of our ability to stay nice. Today with only 25 Password Cracking questions from people who have just joined and asked how to crack this password being asked I'm nice but when the next one gets posted I turn nasty to everything. :D

by .martin.

you can say your not a thief, but how do we know that you are not lieing?

by the scummy one

you will need to re-install Windows again if you do, AND your data will be gone if it isnt backed up.

But it is the thought that counts :D
Revenge is sweet :D

The members of TechRepublic - A Resource for IT Professionals, will not assist anyone in the recovery of lost passwords. You may have a legitimate reason to recover a password. However, we cannot verify your motives and will therefore not assist anyone in what may be an attempt at gaining unauthorized access to a computer system. Due to the open nature of this forum, any assistance given to help circumvent security measures, even for legitimate purposes, would be available for unscrupulous individuals to use for illegitimate purposes. This is a risk that we the members of TechRepublic will not take. Please do not ask questions of this nature on TechRepublic.

If you have a legitimate need to circumvent a password scheme, please contact the vendor for the software / hardware and request their assistance. E.g. Windows XP password recovery issues should be taken up with Microsoft's technical support, Phoenix BIOS password recovery issues should be taken up with Phoenix Technologies, etc..

[b]Do you even begin to know just how many questions per day are asked by people in possession of Stolen NB's on how to Crack Passwords. If you began to understand this you may thing somewhat differently as to the response you got here. New members who's only addition to this site is to ask Cracking Questions are treated with supposition for fairly obvious reasons.

by oh smeg

Besides it's only 12.45 PM here now. :p

However I'm not the one P1$$ing Off new members who don't know enough not to torture the Password out of the GF. :0

Or when that fails to send it to a Professional and make the GF Work off the debt. :D

It's [b]Steak and a BJ Day[/b] every day this year. :^0

But I thought you would love to be an Accessory After the Fact to a Crime like this so why didn't you answer the question. I know how much you would love to spend time in Jail to help a [b]Complete Stranger and get nothing but Time for your trouble.[/b] :^0

OH [b]My Religion Made Me Do IT[/b] Right? :p

I figured she had the balls in the relationship, which is why he didnt do it your way.
However, via my way, a different revenge would be made -- and all of her .mp3 will need to be re-downloaded :^0
Ohhh, the revenge sets in nicely
And, My Religion Made Me Do It!!!

by oh smeg

[b]NICE[/b] and not at all the slightest bit Religious.

Can I?

by the scummy one

one would think that some sort of religiousness lies within

:^0

Ok, I couldnt hold it in, case as the God of Scum, I am not religious either :0

by .martin.

should ifs and buts, be candy and nuts, then we would all be happier!

by oh smeg

But if they where chocolate maybe then it would be a different story. :^0

A confirmed self confessed Chocoholic here and proud of it. :p

by oh smeg

Everyone always tells the truth didn't you know that Martin? :D

Also because this is a Public Forum no criminal would ever consider reading it for answers so that they can find new things to steal and attempt to make money off. It just can't happen. :0

Col ]:)

by oh smeg

I am deeply religious so much so that I just have to Declare a Jihad on you and everyone in the Church of Scum. :p

I can not finish till they are all dead after suffering horrendous torture for months. :p

So when do we start the Max Bygraves Therapy? :^0

1. Get rid of your girlfriend

2. Get the ol'installation disk, insert it into CD drive, reboot, and ... aw, heck, you know the drill.

by sbuxcivilengr16

Your girlfriend sounds smart!

First, backup your important data

2. burn or obtain a copy of darik's boot and nuke or another wipe program and wipe everything off and re build you computer off the recovery disks.

Second if that doesnt work BIOS controls password, on your motherboard their is a jumper that you can use to wipe the password and reset
make sure to get a password program to remember your passwords too,
hope that helps
