    We had a power outage today when our computer was on. When we re-booted our computer, it will no longer take the password to boot the system.

    There is no reason that the password should not work. What can we do?

    I actually found that by following a "forgot-your-password?" link Halo posted a few days ago.

    Thank God for bookmarks!
