Is there away to get around this? Please I need some help password cracker or something, if anyone can help please explain on how to get it.

Use Free Windows Password Recovery/Reset Tool
Based on the description above, the best choice is to use a free Windows password recovery tool or Windows password reset tool. A Windows password recovery app helps you get back the forgotten Dell laptop password while the reset tool allows you to reset the lost password to blank or a new one.

1. Ophcrack
Ophcrack is one of the most popular Windows password crackers. More important, it’s free of charge.  Ophcrack cracks Windows passwords by using LM hashes through rainbow tables. It includes the ability to import the hashes from a variety of formats, including dumping directly from the SAM files of Windows.

How it works:  Go to the official website and download the ISO image file. Next all you need to do is download and burn the Ophcrack Live CD and boot the computer you want to recover password for from the Live CD. After this, it will bring you to a desktop environment and start attempting to crack passwords. You’ll see the passwords pop up in the top pane of the window, though, when it finds them. You can then reboot and log in to Windows using those passwords.

2. Offline NT Password & Registry Editor
Unlike Opchcrack, Offline NT Password & Registry Editor erases your Windows password instead of recovering it on Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP passwords (and some older Windows versions). Besides, it’s also a registry editor.

How it works:  To get started, visit the Offline NT Password & Registry Editor website and download the file described as the “Bootable CD image”. Once downloaded, extract the ISO file from the ZIP file and burn the ISO image to a CD. And then boot from the CD by rebooting with the disc still in the drive. Offline NT Password & Registry Editor will start automatically. Next, just follow the instructions given on screen by Offline NT Password & Registry Editor. When the program finally deletes your password, remove the CD from the drive. Restart your computer and log in as you normally do. No password will be required.

Alternative: Windows Password Breaker
If the apps listed above don’t work or you are not god at computer, it’s better to try Windows Password Breaker, which is an extremely easy yet efficient Windows password reset tool.  You are able to safely reset your dell laptop password in no more than 5 minutes. No any computer skills required. However it is released as shareware.

Computer security is an eternal topic among computer users. Any computer risk will bring users into troubles, even disasters. In this article, I will you five tips for better computer security. I hope these tips will help you avoid some common computer risks.

1. Always upgrade your Windows OS and software.
There is no such thing as perfect software. Usually a software program may have several issues and could potentially have security vulnerabilities that can leave your computer open to attacks. Keeping the OS and other software updated is very important for patching security holes and improving performance. Update your applications whenever you can. If you are still using Windows XP or Vista, you’d better go and change to the latest Windows 7.

2. Always run system scans to check for vulnerabilities
Trojans, viruses, spyware, and other malware can not only damage or destroy your computer data but is also capable of monitoring your computer to learn more about your viewing habits on the Internet or even log all your keystrokes to capture sensitive data such as passwords and credit card information. To protect your computer from these threats, install a strong anti-virus program. It would be better if the program include anti-spyware function. And remember to scan your computer on a regular basis.

3. Always browse safe websites and download from trusted websites
Any website that doesn’t have good security certificate must be avoided by you if you don’t want your computer to get infected with viruses. Never download anything from entrusted websites to in case of hidden security risks. Use good security tool to scan websites before you browse them and programs after download. Besides, if you receive a pop-up message from Google that the site you are visiting is not secure to enter, close the window immediately.

4. Always password protect your computer data
Setting a strong Windows login password on your computer is a good way to protect your computer data from unauthorized users. But this is not enough. You’d better set a BIOS password to protect your computer BIOS boot secure and keep your computer more secure. Besides, encrypt your files and files, even your hard drive with encryption software.

5. Avoid sharing your wireless connection
Sharing your wireless connection with others is one of the most popular ways where computer gets most attacks fro. Your computer will become exposed to many dangers if you connect your wireless connection to another computer on the network without scanning the other system in question. So when connecting your computer wirelessly with other computers, make sure that you know the conditions of the second computer on the other side to be sure of not getting virus attacks from that action.
