You could. You see, by changing the local admin password to something you know, you have the opportunity to download the cached logon details of the last 10 people to use that workstation (i.e. their username and password). All it takes is some simple software, and you can crack their passwords! Providing those users haven't changed their passwords since you downloaded them, you can use your cracked passwords to get onto management console.

There's a tutorial on this very forum I believe...

Okay, this is for anyone who has PM'd me or is going to PM me asking for a copy of ERD Commander 2005.
If you want to request a copy of this software PM me withyour username, that's all I need (so I can send the link to all the usernames that I have).
You see my laptop is currently "Under going maintenance" (oh I liked that) so I am forced to use the dell computer which of course the CD Drive doesn't read CDs, but do not worry, I have a solution.
So PM me your username and I will PM you the link

I would've said i could send a copy to people but it's on my old computer and well i dont want to go back to that snail.

[Ict Tech]

Well, I already have it and I can send it (I just need a show of hands )

this is probably a noob question lol but do you have to change the boot order becuase the bios has a password on the machines in my school

[heebyjeebys]

yes i think you do.. there is no temp boot menu on the systems that i tried
......you could however try updating the BIOS... this clears the password without having to open it up

[TBsparky]

I dont even know the bios to these computers all i know is they are Dell and black :S

It says when it starts up..... just press the tab button once (that ushally does it) and you will get rid of the dell picture at startup... then you can get the bios

[Quaon]

Yes ich tech, send it to me.

[TBsparky]

its passworded but it has no cd drive or floppy drive so how can i remove the password XD

[jd2kuk]

You could always boot from USB

Have you tried 'rm' as a password? (No quotes, both letters lowercase)

[TBsparky]

nope but i did click f12 when it said boot menu and my pendrive appaered but i didnt put that ERD on it XD would have been perfect for that ill have to wait till monday now

[TBsparky]

i am currenlty on the computer that i have tried it on and it gave me a blue screen when i booted up ERD does that mean it is blocked?

[heebyjeebys]

No.... your booting from usb, all policies etc are defined on the computers hard drive... but only when windows is booted
There is options when it starts... it might be that.
Are you sure its not a blue screen of death? I got that when booting commander once

What does the blue screen say?
