Hi Thanks for your help, but Browser will not allow me access to
that website???

Find a friend who can download and make the bootable disk for you.
Have them print the web page too.

Change your BIOS (hardware bios) to boot from that media first.. Insert it,
turn off your PC, turn on your PC and go.

Your adminstrator user exists. You may have to be in Safe Mode to log onto
it (since you have Home Edition - you cannot log into it in regular mode)
and you havew to know the password. The users name is "administrator" by
default - it is different than your other users. You can reset the password
using the disk above.

Otherwise - have a friend of yours create an Ultimate Boot CD.. I would have
them make you both versions.. The *nix and the Windows one and see what you
can do booting from those.
