    Reset/Lost Password.


    I have a lenovo ideapad 110s 11ibr with 2GB ram and 32GB storage. I don't know the password to it as it's a super old laptop I dug out of my closet when moving. I can't reset it due to there not being enough space on the drive free up space and try again. I can't free up space with the command prompt because it asks for an account password. If I click forgot password, it just tells me to restart and then restarts into the same sign in area. I tried booting up with a USB drive with a password recovery iso file, however it says there isnt enough memory to create a ramdisk device. I've tried 2 different USB drives, an 8GB and 30GB each with 3 different isos. I've tried changing tons of startup settings. It won't boot into safe mode with command prompt either. I have no clue what to do.

    As stated don't know the microsoft account or admin account password, it only has one user on it. I have no clue what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    reset laptop password

    i could not figure out what forum this should go in, so feel free to move to whatever forum it should be in.
    a friend just called, and said he has 2 daughters and 2 dell laptops. his daughters have lost the password to both laptops. is there a way to reset the password without a full reformat? he said his daughters have a lot of music, pictures, ect. and wants to avoid reinstalling windows.
    i know that a long time ago there was a jumper on the motherboard that would reset the password on a regular pc. is there such a jumper on a laptop? or is there any free software that would let him reset the passwords? he can not afford a dell tech to fix, and i told him i would see if there was a way to reset it without a format. thanks!
    he called me from out of state and due to a bad connection i couldnt find out what model laptops they are. thanks again! sam
