    Cannot use my PIN

    Having spent far too long on this I forced myself to abandon it. I've instead removed the need for both pin AND password. On this solo-use PC that presents no significant security risk.

    For curiosity, academic interest and in case I ever decide to return to pin use, I'd still be interested to hear from anyone who has resolved the problem or has any further practical advice about it please.

    My computer is stuck in safe mode and I cannot log in due to it not accepting my pin: My start button was not working and I was advised to restart my computer in safe mode to solve the problem. However, I am now locked out of my computer because it will not let me use my pin. I have attempted F8 during start up and it still will not let me into my system....
