I can only suggest you to do factory reset by tapping f11 key as soon as you power on laptop, in case you forgot Windows password.

Oh.. ok. Thanks.. I was trying to retrieve documents and things. So a factory reset will just wipe everything off.

For salvaging the data, you can boot from LiveCD​ and try to copy the files you need to external hard drive:
