need help on a Dell laptop that's acting goofy
Sorry guys...I'm a total computer imbecile.
Here's the problem: When you turn the pooter on, the initial Dell logo comes up and it goes thru BIOS. Before startin up Windows it goes to a screen that asks for the sysytem/admin password. I called dell and got that password. When you put in the password it then asks for the HDD password, which I don't have. To get it to load Windows, you have to go to systems maintenance then escape that and Windows will start. At that point it gives you the user name and you input that password and it loads pregferences and begins to work.
When you turn it off/log off you have to start this mess all over again.
Any clues...be gentle. I have no idea what I'm doing.
