Allison cannot log on HP Pavlilion dv6000 that runs on Windows 7, but she knew her password and just didn’t work. She asked if a Windows 7 installation disc would help and any other solutions would be great.

To be honest, the easiest way to reset a lost Windows password is to use a previously created password reset disk. You can go to Start button -> Control Panel -> Family Safety and User Accounts -> User Accounts, and then click the Create a password reset disk on the left pane. This will cost you a few seconds. If this password reset disk is not available, a Windows 7 installation disc will be also Ok when you forgot Windows 7 password. All you need is to take the steps listed below:

Step 1.Start you locked HP from the Windows 7 installation disc.
Step 2. Select your language and click Next after loading the setup files.
Step 3. Select the Repair your computer link on the Install Windows screen.
Step 4. Select the operating system to repair and click Next .
Step 5. Click Command Prompt to open a command prompt window.
Step 6. On the command prompt, type the following commands:
copy c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe c:\
copy /y c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe
Step 7. Reboot the computer.
Step 8. On the logon screen, tap Shift five times and you’ll see an administrator mode command prompt.
Step 9. Enter "net user MyUserName MyNewPassword" (replace the MyUserName and MyUserPassword with the combination you want) and press Enter.
Step 10. Exit the Command Prompt, and log into the computer using your new password.
