After trying over and over again yesterday, I can not get to safe mode. When I press f8 I get a screen that asks me what i should boot into, floppy, cd rom or hard drive. Absolutely no safe mode. After reading some posts above, I am not able to get to control panel to do some of that stuff. I turn computer on windows xp starts loading, A little box pops up with the old owners name in it,, and a box under it asking for a password, the one I have doesn't work. How far does Windows get before the login box appears? Is there an option to cancel? If you see the welcome screen, try pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL a couple times. Not sure about XP but with Vista that gave me an option to change a password. I don't have an Adminstrator password set on my computer so that may only work with User Accounts.

Not very far, just the xp logo then the log in box. Haven't tried the f8 twice yet like WP suggested. Been enjoying thelong weekend to much. : )
