I just bought a used computer with Windows 2000 Pro SP4 installed.
I activated the access to the local network without specifying a
password.
When I try to open Windows, it keeps asking for a password.
Is there something I can do to solve this proplem^

Thanks.

When you buy a car then you ask the previous owner for the
keys. With a PC (with Windows pre-installed) it's the same
thing: Ask the previous owner.

I followed your advice and contacted the store. They gave me the keys which
is the default user name.
Many thanks.
