My Grandson moved to Colorado and left his Acer laptop at our house. I called him and said I was going to send it to him but he said I could keep it because it was locked and he couldn't remember the password he used.

He has since got a new one so is there anyway that I can change this doorstop back to a usable computer?

Thank you

Can be done - when you say it is locked are you referring to the Windows password or the BIOS Password? Also which operating system has the laptop got?

Thanks to everybody. I, being the idiot I am, found out the reason I couldn't sign in was the keyboard doesn't work. So I may have the correct password but I just can't type it in.

Now I've got to get a new keyboard.
