You can reset forgotten password with installation disk, simply complete the following steps:Hi all, I forgot my password to my PC administrator account "I know, stupid" so I burned this (Offline NT Password editor) to a disk and booted it up. Now it's suppose to reset the password to windows account but I am stuck on a part that looks like this...
===============================
Step TWO: Select PATH and registry files
===============================
What is the path to the registry directory? (relative to windows disk)
[windows/system32/config] . _
The problem is, I don't know the path or what to do I've tried looking for vids. and other help but they seem to fly through this part without even answering the question. I've tried hitting enter, but it just keeps making more copies of the question I'm just seriously lost here, can someone help me figure this out PLEASE!!!! Thank you.

If the system will not boot to a bootable Win 7 DVD this could be an indication that it's just not bootable at this time -- further diagnosis needed.black screen after logo screen with Win 7 bootable DVD

I'll have to research it for whatever laptop I'm using, but the ultimate solution is just for these Linux boot CDs to handle monitors sensibly based on computer idle time. I don't know why they don't already.Which is why I say test this! Most laptops I've come across do not require OS-level software to enable the dimmer shortcut keys. Some laptops will sleep on lid close, some will simply off the LCD (which is what you want, right?). Every laptop behaviour is different.....
Does this mean no matter what the Linux boot CD developer does, there's a chance that turning off the screen while running can mess up the laptop or prevent the screen from coming back on? Some Linux boot CDs do this just fine with a default timeout and I've run into no problems with them across multiple laptops from different generations and manufacturers.Power management in Linux is highly dependent on modules compiled in at build time and BIOS support. Every module added can impact performance and compatibility in many unforeseen ways given the thousands of systems out there. Granted there are common building blocks and standards to make life easier but there are simply no way to validate every system configuration. For a system recovery and testing distribution like Parted Magic, (vs general everyday use distro like Ubuntu) I would guess the distro maintainer would choose to value stability and compatibility and only build in the bare minimum necessary to get the job done.
Thanks, this is helpful and I'll try it, but it leaves me scratching my head because if this is supposed to work on any laptop, I don't know why a default would work any less. I imagine the number of models of laptops that a default screen timeout won't work with is few and far between, and the number of unrecoverable problems caused by it is probably the same or less than most other common things you can do on CLI that's incompatible with the laptop.If this really means that much to you, give this a shot: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=66169

Some laptops will sleep on lid close, some will simply off the LCD (which is what you want, right?). Every laptop behaviour is different.....The backlight turn-down buttons may not work while UltimateBootCD is running if the laptop requires OS drivers to do that. Also, closing the lid is cumbersome and adds wear especially if I'm having to check the screen every few hours depending on which process I'm running (like hard drive backups or scans). Putting the laptop to sleep is not desirable while I need it to do something; I just want to be able to deactivate the screen, and the laptop may not have a hardware way to do that or at least not with this OS.
