[In Progress] How to change Admin password at School[/in Progress] - Larrdawg - Dec 22, 2012

My very first Tutorial, so don't expect anything very great.

Note: I haven't yet tried this method at school yet, as i have School holidays. And BIOS is probably disabled in many schools. I have tried it on my own computer and it worked.
NOTE 2: Sorry for the bad english, english is not my first language.

1. Shut down the computer completely
2. When starting up press the F2 key repeatedly as it starts up.
3. You should hopefully be met with a screen like this, or atleast something like this.

4. Use the arrow keys to scroll right and stop when you hit the security tab.
5.Go to The admin password section.

6. Press enter
7. Type in the new password
8. Press esc and choose "Save And Exit"
9. Wait for the computer to boot up
10. Type in the admin account name and password.
11. Voila! You have admin access. Remember to use this discreetly, as the tech team can see the new accounts, and password changes. And DO NOT go off bragging to someone about this, as you could end up in big trouble.

That's all for now. Please post feedback🤝

Damn, I have no idea what would happen to me if I got caught doing this.
thanks anyway i've always wanted to do it =D

Old method but thanks anyway for sharing :)

Wouldn't this only change the computers bios password, correct me if i'm wrong :P

I thought a good place to look would be in the SAM files of most windows computers


* - Larrdawg - Dec 23, 2012

Nibbles, you are probably right. Again, i haven't tried it at school. So it could do anything

Nice idea, but it does not work. That's only changing the computers bios password, it's pretty much useless.


* - Larrdawg - Dec 24, 2012

^ Ok thanks for confiming it, i will still leave it here. In case someone wants to change the BIOS password, which i doubt someone would want to do, but you never know. Thanks for pointing it out.

This doesn't work on windows 8..

Because the new login system on Windows 8 requires an Hotmail.com account [live]

And i'm pretty sure that you can't change your live account's password via these settings..

But I have to try this on my school pc's WIN7 and XP :D

This does change the bios password not the windows passowrd.

for password rest lol. then later i just created a new user and gave it network admin authority and didnt get caught ;)

Yeah i noticed. I did a bit of a fail-whale when testing this out.

Exactly.
This wont effect windows at all, it only effects the computers booting.
Now it will ask for a password at boot that only you know.
This pretty much fucks the whole thing, my friend did this and the techs at our school couldn't remove it and he got suspended.
Bad idea bro. 😁
