i changed the power option's. the PC power's down or goe's into standby or hibernate's or sleep's. then a window's box ask's me for my owner password. this is the 1st time i have been asked for 1 since i bought the PC. i do not recall making 1.
i changed the setting so it would not ask me for a password, and it still doe's it.
please help. thank's.

try booting the computer and pressing F8 to get the boot options, choose to boot into safemode, then you should be able to login as Administrator (hopefully) and then change your user accounts password, or remove the password on your account.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
