Gateway E-3400 computer has WIndows 98 SE plus Ubuntu - Don't have login name
Asked by
jmksd
I received this computer from a school. It uses Ubuntu. I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.1, but it could not install everything. Hard drive error msg occurred.
Has 254 KB total memory and has an Intel Celeron M processor 1.50GHZ. I don't know the desktop login and have tried to change the password to no avail. Is there anyway to wipe out the hard drive and start over? I need the login info and the password to manage the system.
The hard drive error msg does not occur any more since I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.1. Also is there anyway to access the Windows information? My kids want to use it to play games on line ,listen to music, and watch Youtube. So far this is not possible with Ubuntu.
Thank you for your help.
