I inherited a computer from my grandfather who recently passed, upon booting the comp it asks for a password. I have tried everything that I found among the piles of random computer info and I am unable to login. I did some research to see if I could get passed this and found pulling the battery for a couple minutes would ultimately reset this password. Unfortunately that is not the case in my situation, does anyone have some ideas on how I can remove this password? I can't boot into safe mode, or enter in setup (F2) without a password that he set. I don't want to erase the HD as there are pictures that my family wish to print off. Any assistance you can offer me would be very helpful. The comp is a Dell DV051 Seris BIOS Ver. A03 Phoenix ROM BIOS Plus Ver. 1.10 A03. That is all the info I grabbed.
