Thanks for prompt reply.

 

I think it was the other password.

 

it is the page which comes up with your username after switching the laptop on, and it asks for your password.

 

i don't think it is the windows password.

 

thanks

If it prompts for a:

 

User Name:

Password:

 

That is usually a Windows login??

 

Or does it ask for a Start-up Password???

Try to do a System Recovery:

Scroll down to:

 

Recovery from the startup screen (during system boot) OR when unable to boot to login in screen

Thanks for your advise. However, I'm still unable to get past the page on the picture I sent earlier.
