Downloaded ie7, now Windows wants password
Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry
Windows XP-SP2 on an eMachine T3256. Last night I upgraded ie6 to ie7, when
the upgrade was finished I got a window telling me to restart the computer.
It booted back up with a logon window. I've had this computer for two years,
there is only one account (owner) and I have never set a password. I tried
leaving the password box blank and hitting enter, but a little note came up
telling me I had put in the wrong password. I tried starting the computer in
safe mode, but it said there was a file missing or corrupted
(system32\hal.dll). I can't get into Windows. Any ideas on how to fix this
miserable situation?
