I recently purchased a laptop and got tired of see the former owners name
appear in the log on window each time I started the computer. I created my
own ID under an option within Control Panel (sorry, I'm an XP neophyte and
forget the exact title, it was something like System Administration). I then
diabled the former owners Log on, which by the way had no password assigned
to it. When the sytem starts up, her name still appears, and when I try to
replace it with my own Log on Id, I can't get in. I've tried many variants
from the Id created, Homer Simspon, such as HSimspon, SimpsonH, etc.,
incuding all issues related to capitalization. Now I'm screwed,as I'm unable
to use the laptop. Any ideas ?
