How do I fix my Windows 2000 computer that is at the login page and I do not have a log in?

Q. I have windows 2000. It rebooted on me 100 times, and now is stuck at the Windows Log in screen with "Adminstrator" as the user, and I do not have a password for it. I do not have the back up CDs to re-boot it completely. What can I do?

A. Well it is pretty apparant you have a serious problem.
Being stuck at the windows log in screen and it is apparant that you bought the computer and didn't set it up as you as the administrator.
Now if you don't have the disc's to re-install the operating system you are going to need something.
So it brings you to choices.
Go out and buy an upgrade to windows XP
I mean a New Fresh Version not an Update. This will allow you to Erase and Install,
Depending on the Damage, You may be money a head to buy a New Computer.
Getting the New Operating System there is No Guarntee that will fix your problem.
Not trying to be a smart a88 but you could always use it as a boat anchor.
You are really limited as to what you can do.

How can I get a Windows 2000 server to properly configure its clients to see specific gateway?
Q. I have a Windows 2000 server connected to a hub. I also have about 20 Windows XP machines (clients) connected to this hub as well. I also have a Netgear firewall, which is connected to both a cable modem and the hub.

The Win 2000 server has IP 10.100.100.1, and the Netgear firewall has IP 10.100.100.141.

Right now, what I'm doing is going to each client and configuring the Default Gateway entry manually. What I'd LIKE to do is have the client's IP settings set to "Obtain IP Addresses Automatically" and have the Netgear's IP address come up automatically.

I'm assuming this can be done on the Windows 2000 server, as it's the DHCP server on the network, but I have no idea how to do it.

Could someone give me a step-by-step on how to do it?

Also, is this the best way to get my network to have internet access? Right now, each client loses internet access about every 10 mins, which a "repair" will fix, but it happens so regularly that it's getting to be disruptive. Tnx for hlp!

A. Pretty simple. Open your DHCP from administrative tools. Go to scope options. The default gateway is going to be option 003 (router). Add your router's IP here. Poof! you're done! It will push out the router's IP as the default gateway to all DHCP clients.
While you're at it, you might consider adding DNS servers as well (option 006, I think... it will walk you through it). This could go a long way towards fixing your "internet down" issues.

I am getting a "low virtual memory" error message in Windows 2000. What else can I do to fix this?
Q. I have Windows 2000 Professional. I get that error message. "Help" function suggested increasing the "virtual memory page filing" setting, so I set it to the maximum. Still getting the message.

Any other ideas?
