Windows 10: Help! Can not log into my computer at all!

Setting up new PC and was going great. I created One Drive and under sign in options I added a pin not realizing that it would affect the whole sign in process. I turned off PC taking break and now it is saying it can't located the pin. It gives me a "set up new pin" option Or Select sign in with Key or Pin icon. I tried clicking on both links and nothing happens. I'm totally locked out. Luckily I have my old PC still up and running and am using it now to try and get assistance with How To Get Back into My Locked Computer! UGH.... I feel like a rookie. Thank you

:)

Sounds like your work units were running so slow that they timed out... not sure though

Check this link on system and memory requirements:

Help

Your system is low power so I would suggest only opting in to the 5 projects listed at the top of the memory requirements list (Computing for Sustainable Water thru Computing for Clean Water). You will need to log into World Community Grid to change the project selection listed under My Projects.

Also, check the amount of available memory in windows task manager

*** EDIT- post a screenshot of the errors listed... that may help also***

Mad Shot has some experience with lower power systems- he may have some additional tips beyond these
