I had a problem with my Administrator account logon. I used the steps from a
help site to change the BIOS password, and to get to the SVPW utility to
change the Supervisor Password. The problem is: now that I have
logons/Passwords that I know, I still don't have a working Administrator
account that I can use to give Administrator priviliges to my Limited
Account. So I still can't change settings, install programs, or troubleshoot
wireless problems. I'm not able to set up a new Administrator account
either. I'm running in circles. Can Anybody give me a path to follow?
This is for a Toshiba P105-S6084 w/ Windows XP Media Center.
Thanks for any direction you can give,
