Preparations
When you have forgotten a Windows log-on password.
Windows XP has a function to reset a current password and to set a new password.
To use this function, you need to create a password reset disk beforehand following the
steps below.
A Connect the USB floppy disk drive (optional: CF-VFDU03) to your com-
puter.
B Click [start] - [Control Panel] - [User Accounts].
C Click the account you have logged on, and click [Prevent a forgotten pass-
word] from [Related Tasks] menu.
Create a password reset disk following the onscreen instructions, and
store the password reset disk in a safe place.
z Only the log-on password for each account can be reset. The pass-
word set in the Setup Utility cannot be reset.
The screen displayed first when powering on the computer and logging on to Windows,
is called the “desktop.” (These screens and icons are only examples.)
