I realise that this is not strictly an XP question, but I have just changed
to XP and given my old pc with Win 98 to a relative.
I went to set the machine up (it had been stored for a couple of months) and
realised that I had put a password on the screen saver which I have now
forgotten!
I can get around this by switching off the PC and re starting but it is not
ideal. I can also set the screen saver activation to the longest period.
However, is there any way of reclaiming the original password, or will I
have to uninstall Win 98 and reinstall with the CD Rom. Any thoughts
gratefully received.
