Dual Boot, need to recover XP Pro password

Postby aht908 on Fri Jul 03, 2009 8:04 pm

OK, this is my issue: My ex filed for divorce and so I placed a password on the XP Pro partition - and I can't remember it. (I was in quite a state of shock. :shocked: )

I can use the Vista partition just fine. I use VistaBootPro 3.3, and have tried the 'Dual Boot Trouble Shooting Guide / Vista Running' to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. aht

Are you saying you made those files private that are on the XP partition?
