re: password authentication system Friday, July 21, 2006 at 3:28 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by mike (68 messages posted) I assume you can bootup but can't access any files Download a freeware called SIW from http://www.gtopala.com/ Run it and click the area called "secrets" in the software It will display all your passwords If you cannot get past bootup, a reinstall of Windows is the next step.
