Hey,

So my wife forgot her user password for her Vista Vaio. I have done alot of research and cannot find ANYTHING on recovry.

She never made a password reset disc, and I have read that you should not remove the Administrator password with 3rd party software as you can lose data. If need by i would rather take out the drive and backup that data and reformat before losing data.

I was hopeing dmorris would have some extremely technical way to get in that no one does that is borderline hacking but gets the job done. lol. Its a hope at least..

any ideas?

Never saw any data loss or anything, so hopefully there are no reprocusions.
