The seller told me that he does not know the user/password. Is there a way to crack this? If not, what would be a good Debian distribution to install and from where would I download it? It is not a recent machine, 256MB, 2GB Hard Drive, 233 MHz Pentium processor. http://209.167.114.38/ISG/pastproducts/html/satellite/satellite_2500cds_spec.html Also, any thoughts about putting Windows NT on a second partition? Will I be able to run XP programs on NT? Where can I get a copy of NT? Thanks in advance for any advice Yours, Mitch If your sure it was not stolen, there is a utility to blank the password that works on Windows 2000 and XP. I haven't tried it on windows NT but it will likely work. It is linux based and can be used from either a floppy or CD. You can download it here: http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/
