PC password

One PC on my home network, win 98 penteium II, belongs to my son and he has
forgotten his password and thus can not start the windows. Is there any way I
can crack this to start? Am I out of luck now? appreciate a solution if any!

Your son should be able to circumvent the Windows 98 password by just opting
for 'Cancel' which should then progress into Windows.

However, in order to reset/bypass the password option see :-
"How to Prevent a Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me Logon Prompt at
Startup"

When it comes to setting up again, then if you no longer want a password,
enter a name but DO NOT enter any password at all, then click OK. DO NOT
"Cancel".

It's got to be a BIOS password! I can't see how anyone could be twarted
by Windows 98 and its "high security" password login.

That possibility had crossed my mind - but surely the OP would have
mentioned that it was the BIOS password that was causing problems g
