I recently booted up an old computer from storage, it runs on Windows XP, but when I came to the windows user login screen, I realized I forgot the password. I tried to boot it up in safe mode, I heard there are many ways to change passwords from there, but I can't access safe mode.
As its booting up it displays the HP logo and has the options Esc(summary), F2(Setup), F8(Boot Menu), F12(Boot on LAN). I tried hitting F8 but it just has a numeric list, 1.) Harddrive, 2.) Floppy...etc. If anyone knows anything that could help, I would appreciate the info. Thanks in advance.
Note: I also seached the forums and looked at the similar posts but none of them, as far as I can see, says anything about not being able to access safe mode.
