Hi leogreen,

My name is Narasimha; I am from the Social Media and Community Team at Dell.

Leogreen, if you didn’t set the default administrator password, then you should
have been able to pass. Else you either need to download a third-party software that does the job, or you do the following instead.

Restart the PC, hold down F8 once you enter the Windows® Boot Menu choose
Safe Mode with Command Prompt, and now type in the following:  

net user root /add

net localgroup Administrators root /add

net localgroup Users root /delete

The first command adds a new user called “root”, the second command adds
that user to the Administrators group and the third command removes the
user from the Users group which leaves him in the Administrators group.


Once you've done, have a look at mine Password Reset Disk Step-by-Step Guide.
