    Windows log in not not taking acct pwd


    Having a problem logging into windows, IDK if it is the upgrade or I switched setting somehow. I am prompted for a password at start up which I never got before. I tried my MS acct pwd but I am told I am offline and won't take it. I use a wifi adaptor which only boots up once windows logs in. so I am stuck at pwd prompt. suggestions?


    Well I was hoping for suggestions. So I figure it was a stupid question or a unique one. Only idea I can come up with is haul the box, monitor, KB out to the DSL modem and try a direct Cat connection and hope Windows sees that on startup. Comments???

    :)
