If I remember right, I was able to install chntpw on an ubuntu usb and
use that tool to reset a win7 admin password. I know it worked on XP,
I'm having a hard time remembering if I tested on 7 or not.<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 9:13 AM, Michael Mol <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mikemol@gmail.com" target="_blank">mikemol@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
