Hello everyone. I transplanted a hard drive from my 190 with a bad mobo to a healthy 190CS. Apparently in 6th grade I put a password lock on and now I can't remember what it is. This was about 1996, so I would imagine it was System 7.5. Does anyone know of a workaround? The lock is the one that comes with Sys7.

I did leave a password hint that I know the answer to, but I probably changed the password and not the hint sometime back then (since the hint is apparently wrong). I'm a little disheartened if I am truly locked out. I was looking forward to seeing my old school files. After three tries the 190 shuts down. Is there much harm in me trying many passwords- will the HD finally give up?
