Hello,
I recently Got this computer from a school sale that my sister got me, she only could access the guest profile. The login system is novell, and the computer type is windows XP. The problem i am having is that i cant download anything or use disc or flash drives. I know it is because i dont have admin rights. ive tryed using the comand prompt net user stuff to add and change passwords, but i always get system error 5. If anyone knows how to bypass or add new profiles or something please reply. cause i really need help. please and thank you.

Hello,
You can add new profilles (If you can access it,) Is the administrator mode in safe mode, (Repeatedly press or hold F8 during start-up) However if that doesn't work than the best thing is to re-install the Operating system. That worked when i got a hard drive from a school.

Hope it Helps, good luck!!
