  1. Bought returned PC with someone else's login info still


    Bought returned PC at great price from Sam's club, it seems whoever returned it, didn't log out of their Microsoft account, now I can't access it, is there any way around to login with my account info?

    :)

  2. Just bought PC and can't login


    I just bought a new Samsung laptop. Went through the setup. Skipped the part on creating a microsoft acount. Set my password for the laptop. Played around for a while and every thing worked great. Shut down PC. Got on this morning and couldn't log in. I know what my password is but I tried every other password I have ever used and can't get in. Booted to Bios to changed priority to boot to USB so I could hack the password, but there is no USB option. Went through all the articles I could find on the web but found no solution.

    Any Suggestions? Is it really asking me for a microsoft account login instead of my laptop login?

    Thanks

  3. Just bought PC and can't login


    This is solved. Moral of the story is you must setup a Microsoft account or you can't login. My old laptop was Win 7 and that was not the case. The fix was to do a factory restore by booting with F4 held down. Then go through the setup and include a MS account.

    GPUz Incorrect Info GF117

    I've got the GT620M in a Zenbook and the newest version of GPUz has it listed as a 40nm part whereas all other info on the web suggests its 28nm. Can you investigate, W1z?

    Thanks
