I've got a couple of problems with an old Dell c640 laptop which I haven't used for months.
1.
I've forgotten the administrator password!
I have a CD that can reset passwords but the damn laptop doesn't have a CD drive. Anyone got/know of anything similar I can run from a floppy?
(I'm gonna buy a CD/DVD drive for it but I'd like to sort this out before then)
2.
It's got W2k installed but I've just noticed that there is a Microsoft sticker on the bottom of it with an XP Serial Number.
Could I use this serial as a non-pirated copy for my desktop PC?
Can I somehow find out what type of XP (Corp, OEM, whatever) the serial is good for?
The sticker says
Windows XP Professional 1 - - 2CPU
Product Key TYJ7J- etc etc
Any ideas?
Thanks
