i took a backup image of my laptop driver and installation CDz so that if i ever lose the CDz i would have a backup. i made the image using DriveImage by Powerquest. good thing i made a backup because the CD #1 of my installation cds is badly damaged. now that i want to retore the backed up files and reformat my computer i can't because it requires a password from me.

i don't remember putting a password on it or can't remember the password period, but it requires me enter the password in order to restore files. how can i solve this huge problem? :confused:

try using the following passwords:

<blank> (no password)
admin
password
administrator


see if any of those work. If not, try doing a google search for pnordahl.

btw, you may look into creating ISO images of your cd's, rather than pqi files from Drive Image....just a bit more standard....
