    Locked out of my pc


    The built-in administrator account locked me out of my pc, is there any hope?It demands a password which does not exist as far as I know, just hitting enter without typing anything into the field does nothing, just shows the "wrong password" message. I cannot factory reset my pc for seemingly no reason, and the recovery mode says that there aren't any accounts with admin privileges on the device. What is going on? Is there any hope for me?

  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

    I would suggest you to set the default pictures as the Lock Screen picture from the PC and check if it works or not.

    • Select Personalize
    • From the left click on "Lock screen"
    • Select the default picture and conform by preview.
