The tales of my travaisl are long and sorrowful… BAdically, MY computer belched out a cloud of sulfur and brinstone, so
i am forced to use my son's computer.
Before he left for Kuwait, he set me up as a user on his computer.
Only problem is that I can't print, dpwnload pictures, or log on at work. The problem is that I need "Administrator Privileges".
If I try to log on as Jack, I need his password. He has no idea what it is. |

Try to log in as Administrator (a default account). chances are it has no password once in got to Users and make your account an Administrator |

How do I do that?
There are two choices, "JAck" and "John". |

What about using a password retriever program? |

try one of these. Usually, these tools will set the password to blank or one you select but will not actually recover a password. link link |
