preinstalled Vista prob

[Apollo Cree]

I did try "000000" didn't work.as i said before i was able to "unhide" the hidden partition on which the vista setup was and in there there's a file containing the needed password which i opened with notepad and yeah i was able to restore the computer to the factory default state.i actually found some instructions on the web which helped alot..am i allowed to just copy paste some of the steps on here?..apollo cree,do you have an acer also?I was able to burn the recovery disks after resetting the system...i hope the recovery discs will work nxt time something happens...

No, no Acer here. Try putting the recovery disk in the drive and see if the PC will boot off of them. It shouldn't do anything to damage your system unless you try to install or do some of the other dangerous options. If it boots, that's some indication that they may be good.
