Well, it's booting to the account login for XP installed on a Presario I gutted. I'm in the process of chopping the poor Presario down as an assorted drive stack/card reader/hub/breakout box for the NetBooks, so it doesn't really need this drive any longer. [}] ]'>

ISTR reading something about removing a password to use a Windows install while leaving the user account data encrypted? There's even mention of password resetting on the MoBo. Any help freeing up XP temporarily would be nice. This is a bit newer MoBo than the Presario's so XP should work out fine. I can just wait until next payday as well, has anyone got an XP retail package they wanna let go for cheap or trade goods?

It's off to the Trading Post in the AM!
