    Cannot log into PC using windows account/password even though the account/password works on other devices


    Have reset password and can log onto my laptop. The same account is used on my son's PC and we keep getting an "incorrect password" error.

    We log into safe mode, normal mode and all other options and we just keep getting prompted for a password. We don't have an option to get to the command line either.

    :)

    Lost password on an Old Account, any way to merge accounts?

    1) I hope I haven't broken the rules
    2) I created a new account because I couldn't remember the password to the old one
    3) Not sure. I like the 2005 reg date in a vanity sense and I was doing some lookup stuff with that account to trouble shoot my friend's pc (friend bought my old opteron / 7800GT rig) back in 2009.

    Okay its probably hopeless then. *Frown Cannot log into PC using windows account/password even though the account/password works on... :(.
