    Why am I locked out of my laptop?


    My laptop has locked me out. It’s saying my PIN is currently unavailable band to use my password instead. I set up that password years ago and haven’t a clue what it is. I know my Microsoft password but that doesn’t match my laptop password. How do I fix this ?

    :)

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
