Hi,

Try to boot the computer in safe mode. To boot the computer in safe mode, please switch on the computer and start tapping the F8 key which would take you to Advanced Boot Option screen. Using the up and down arrow key, select Safe Mode with networking to boot the computer into Safe Mode.

Please check if you are able to login to the computer.

You can also click on the link below which will give you steps to login into Safe Mode:

If the system accepts the password in safe mode then, would also recommend you to do a system restore and take the system to a prior date when it was working fine. At times it happens due to the updates not being properly installed on the system.

To perform System Restore click on the link below:

You can refer the Dell Article 266590 on www.support.dell.com.

For password issue, please refer to the link below:

You can also refer to the Dell Article 125997 on www.support.dell.com

If the above mentioned steps do not work, would recommend reinstalling windows.

Please reply if you have any further questions.

Thanks & Regards
Rathish C
