My girlfriend got this computer from a family member that passed away last year. She was setting it up for her granddaughter and it's password protected. She has no way of getting the password. And asked if the computer can be reset. Going through and resetting it gets up to about 30% then it stops and says that it cannot be completed because of a problem. Is there anything that can be done to get past this. Thank you
