I have a laptop that has Windows 2000 on it. It is pasword protected when it starts windows. I don't know the password and can't use the laptop without it. Is there a way to beat it? I tried putting in WinXP disc to format and instal XP but I can't get it to bood off the disk and it goes strait to the 2000 username pasword screen.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Rob
