    Have an old windows dell laptop that uses windows 7 ultimate. Do not recall the password or any clue to it. Also i dont think i have the old installation cd or anything to it.


    Can someone tell me if there is a way to unlock it or basically wipe it and start from brand new? Its a dell inspiron e1405.


    Thanks all.
