My evil roommate has locked me out of my own computer. Now when I turn on my
pc there is a pop up that requires me to sign in with a username and
password. I cant login because I dont know what username or password she
used.

She is gone on vacation for 2 weeks and I cant wait that long before getting
into my pc. I'm desparate for help! I couldnt find anything in the online
help section so I'm hoping I can get some advice from this forum.

Thanks in advance

Try logging on as Administrator, with no password. It's a common
security hole.

If it's a win98 box, just tap the ESC key.
