I had a pc given to me with WinXP Pro on it. It was part of a work enviroment and a password/username is needed to fire it up into windows. I'd like to keep xp on it if possible only for the OS and NOT for any other info which I would delete. Is there anyway to get around this or do I have to Fdisk the drive as i originaly thoght prior to learning what was on it:confused:

Think I'll go the fdisk route, not wanting any troubles with licences issues:thumbsup:

There are programs that will try and figure out what the password is. Sometimes they work sometimes they don't. Unless you really need to keep the info I'd recomend just fdisk and start over.
