This is a discussion about Password recovery??? in the Customization Tweaking category; I have a computer system at work that I just inherited, but I cant log into it becuse the previous employee who owned it set passwords on all the user and administrator accounts and didnt tell anyone what they were.

I have a computer system at work that I just inherited, but I cant log into it becuse the previous employee who owned it set passwords on all the user and administrator accounts and didnt tell anyone what they were. Does anyone know how I can either bypass the log in screen or delete all the password info?
 
There is some serious data that I need to get to, otherwise I'd be more than willing to just format the darn thing and reinstall 2k.
 
Thanks guys.

If you just need to get some files you can install the hard drive as a slave in another computer, unless his files are encrypted. Or try some password crackers such as Lophtcrack or Locksmith.
