<pre wrap="">One of my friends is a VP with Bank of America. They just gave him a new laptop and let him keep the one being replaced. This is a Dell downgarded from Vista to Win XP pro.
He dropped off the computer with me to reinstall an OS as this machine has been "clamped down" so he can't install any software without admin password

Transfer the ownership on dell's website and then call Dell and they
will generate an admin password for you once they check your
ownership. I've done that before and it's real easy. This will
unlock the laptop and then another password to unlock the Hard
drive.<br>
<br>
you need 2 passwords to unlock the machine<br>
