  1. Locked out of my PC! for


    my password is not working anymore! I’m locked in log in screen. And if i try to reset it, it sugests to send a text to my old phone number... So i changed it to my new phone number. Now i have to wait 30 days for it to update. So after that i had option to change / reset pasword after i typed in a long link i got. So now i changed my micosoft / outlook password. But i am still locked out from my PC! And i can’t reboot or trouble shoot or use command prop, all of them want me go login first... And i can’t log in!!!! Please help

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    PC Build Steps

    1.1 - Ideally put optical in SATA 0, and SSD in SATA 1, this will cause the optical drive to be the default 1st boot option. You can change it manually if not, but I like it this way
    2.infinity - yes, that's fine. if it's above 70 +/- 5 degrees, then it may just need a repaste/remount

    • Select the default picture and conform by preview.
