JamesZero Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I have installed snow leopard on my PC, but I hadnt used the machine for a while and completely forgot the password I used for the main account. I read that you can boot off the snow leopard CD and reset the password, but for some reason the latest copy of [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (I had to redownload as I lost my old CD) doesnt work on my PC... it keeps crashing when trying to load the snow leopard CD. Anyway, my question is, are there any tools or tricks I can use to change the password without booting off the CD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesZero Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 No one knows? I found my old [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] CD and the machine still wont boot off the Leopard CD anymore! The Mac install works perfectly, all I need to do is change the admin password. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
