The person who owned the laptop forgot his password. He just stopped using the laptop. I bought the laptop from him but I need help getting past his password. I pray some one can help me.

Windows password? You can simply restore the laptop to factory specs and have your own password. Tap F11 as you power up and see if you can enter the recovery program.
