watching tv shows

Ha!
check this out, free tv shows, although can just be watched on your computer it's good fun.

Some video are cue and bin files, this is fine if you are watching the film on a small tv screen, as the resolution is 352 x 240. But you could get the Divx AVI version and the default resolution of these files is 512 x 384 which gives a much better film quality. These Divx files can be burned onto DVD with NERO as data files.

You can watch the .cue file on your pc by downloading and installing DaemonTools and mounting the file. To burn .bin files to dvd, use Isobuster to extract the data, rename the DAT file to MPEG and then use your favorite conversion or burning program.

forgot your pc password?

Many people go away on vacation then forget their password for use on their windows XP pc. What do you do? Format the drive and reinstall windows ? No.

Download a program called ERD Commander. Use it to create a boot CD, which you should insert into your CD Rom and restart your computer.

Select the windows installation you want and under the System menu item called "Locksmith" you can find all administrator usernames and passwords.
Then exit out, reboot to Windows; and then log in as an administrator and reset her password.

Also, if you are using administrator account in Normal Mode, do the following....
1. Go to the Start menu, and click Run.
2. In the window that opens, type "control userpasswords2" without the quotes, and click the OK button. (This tool is reserved for Windows XP Professional Edition.)
3. A new window will open listing Administrator and any other accounts you have set up on the machine. Click on Administrator to highlight it, and then click the Reset Password button.
4. Enter the new password in the boxes marked "new password" and "confirm new password" and click OK.
5. Click OK to close the User Accounts window.
