    can't access PIN screen

    when I tried to start my laptop this morning it opened with the password screen displayed, I have always used a pin to open windows not a password so I tried my Microsoft acct password and it said wrong password so I went to reset password on my desktop
    and changed my microsoft password then tried again and it says the same thing. I have tried as many old passwords as I can remember and it says the same for all of them. HELP How can I get it to use my PIN
