This can be usually done by a Windows Password Tool. However, if you have already activated the Administrator on the PC (Any Brand) with Windows 7. You can try the following steps. Generally, the logon does not have the administration account listed. So one may want to go restart the machine to the Command Prompt to enable the Command Prompt. Restart the Machine --> Tap F8 (Advanced boot options) --> Go Save Mode With Command Prompt --> Command Prompt Window appears. Type : 1: net user Administrator /active: yes 2: shutdown -r This would restart the machine and the Windows Logon will have the Administration account. You can login to the Administration Account and then change the password on the other account. Also, If you do not have the the admin account activated, then you may want to get windows key from http://www.lostwindowspassword.com/windows-password-recovery.htm (This is a paid software). You may get several free software's online as well. Thanks, Rahul a

What about Taking out the RAM and Removing your Backup Battery of the Laptop some time and putting it Back. This could do some Tricks.

How much RAM do you have? Upgrading your RAM is a good way to improve system performance.

Sub out the ram one at a time to see if that will fix the problem.

cmos battery maybe bad?

Hi there,

If you plug in your AC adapter to your laptop to charge the battery and get the "plugged in, not charging" message then try the following solution:

Disconnect AC adapter

Shutdown laptop

Remove laptop battery

Connect AC adapter

Power on laptop

Click the Startup Menu

Type Device and select Device Manager

Under the Batteries category, right-click Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery and select Uninstall.

Shutdown laptop

Disconnect AC adapter

Insert laptop battery

Connect AC adapter

Power on laptop

If you follow these steps and find that your laptop still does not charge then consider replacing the laptop battery itself.

Hope to have been of assistance,
Thanks.

If your laptop appears to boot up and the hard disk LEDflashes, then the problem is probably a back light fault. This can be a faultyinverter or a faulty CCFL lamp.
