Can anyone out there help me. I have just upgraded my PC from Windows '98 to Windows 2000. No problems and no error messages. The problem is, it automatically brings up some other username I don't know about (assume it was the former owner of the PC) I typed in the password I assigned myself during the installation and it loads up the personal details and then automatically goes back to the Shutdown/Restart Window without going into the applications. I tried going into Safe Mode and the whole menu with with to get to Recovery Console to get a list of Usernames and passwords, but that didn't come up so I could enter a command in. It just runs in Safe Mode or whatever and goes into the logon window. Now, the password that worked before doesn't work altogether. What can I do so I can get in? There have been no error message altogether. Anyway a username and password can be assigned and work or what can I do. Thanks

Thanks Would it be possible with the OS media you have in hand to format the computer and do a clean install of 2000?
