Lost password
I think I have the latest version of a month or so ago. The OS is installed on an HP Netbook. When I turn it on and it boots up, it says the following Enter CURRENT Password: I cannot remember. It gives me three trys and then gives the message Password check failed. Fatal Error... System Halted.
I thought I had the OS on a flash drive. I put the flash drive in an USB port and hit f9 when booting up. F9 is supposed to change booting order. I tried f10 while booting up. Nothing. I tried holding shift while booting up. No help. I tried holding shift and f10. No help. What else can I do? If this is the case, how do I boot from a external drive. It keeps asking me for a password to do anything.
Thanks.
