My friend has the HP Windows 8 Edition Notebook computer. HP 2000 Notebook PC Windows 8 2012 System Type 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor Computer name hp Computer description CARD Workgroup WORKGROUP Windows is activated Product ID 00179-60625-27511-AAOEM Graphics Card Manufacturer Powered by AMD Graphics Chipset AMD Radeon HD 7340 Device ID 9808 Vendor 1002 Subsystem ID 188B Subsystem Vendor ID 103C Graphics Bus Capability PCI Maximum Bus Setting PCI BIOS Version 015.024.000.000 BIOS Part Number BR43650.bin BIOS Date 2012/08/23 Memory Size 384 MB Memory Type DDR3 Core Clock in MHz 523 MHz Total Memory Bandwidth in GByte/s 10.7 GByte/s The computer was his deceased aunt's and given to him by his grandmother. He was able to set up an administrator's password under his "other user" on the computer but now he has a virus on the computer and has asked me to install AVG Antivirus security for him. Unfortunately, in order to RUN the downloaded security, I need the administrator's password and he has forgotten what he has changed it to. Is there any way he can reset the password or can the password by bypassed in order to clean up his computer? Thanks.
