Help with Windows

[yessongs]

OK, after using Macs for over ten years, i needed a PC for a few cell phone modding programs.
i picked up i Dell Powerbook it has Windows 2000 in it now its asking for a password. I type in the password and it still wont let me open windows.
Anyone know a way around the password, or have a copy of 2000 or XP i can borrow.

Thanks,
Robert.

Jennie, Happy Mothers Day.
Its used, and was blank at first username was administrator.
I have to try and get it back to that setting.

Do you have the administrator password or is it "enabled"?

On the windows login, click cancel.
Try signing in as "adminstrator", leave the password empty.
Let me know.

Looks like a compressed file. Try Winzip.

Winzip is not one of the options, should i download it?

 

[Josh]

Winzip is a free download, highly recommended (or WinRAR).

 

[Quang]

Agreed with Josh. Go to download.com and search for it.
