Uncle, mother, father; doesn't matter - format it and start fresh.
Better to start clean than start with someone elses possibly
infested/infected machine.
(You can also hack the password - but you still should format it and start
fresh in my opinion.)

With second-hand computers, especially if acquired from strangers
but perhaps even if acquired from a family member or friend, your wisest
course of action would definitely be to format the hard drives and start
fresh. You don't want to get in trouble because the original owner may
have filled the hard drive with kiddie porn, or have problems because
the original owner downloaded/installed viruses or other malware.
Otherwise, Linux-based password cracking utilities abound on the
Internet, freely available to anyone who can use Google.
