System Error 5 "Access Denied" problem
I recently changed my main account from an administrative account to a regular user. I didn't realize until i did this, that the previous owners had a old admin account that was still active. That account has a password on it so i can't make any changes. The other problem is that this administrator does not show up on the log in screen. I heard of a way to use command prompt to change an admins password. When i tried doing this, it came back with a System error 5 "Access denied" message. I was just wondering if there was another way around this problem.
