owlchimi,

If you didn't set an administrator password, leave the box blank and just hit enter. If it's still asking for your password, someone with access to the computer must have set it. They don't come preset from the manufacturer. If you cannot get into Windows you will need to format and reinstall Windows. There are some 3rd party programs that charge a fee to recover your password.

Thank You,
Dell-Jesse1
