I have purchased an HP Vectra VL420MT at a bankruptcy auction. It is loaded
with Windows NT Server version 4.0. A logon password is called for BUT no
password logon was supplied. How do I do a work around?
 
Purchase a "Full Version" of Windows XP and perform
a "clean install".

Click to expand...

Use NTpasswd and change the Administrator password to a blank.

It is best practice to format the hard drive and clean install an
operating system of your choice on a second-hand computer.
