I have a Toshiba Windows 7 laptop. The admin user profile is locked out. I didn't create a password reset disk. Can only get on through alternate profiles, but no admin functions. HELP ASAP PLEASE!!! TODAY! Thank you.
 
I'm sorry, but the Tom's Hardware rules specifically prohibit helping bypass passwords. In the worst case, you may have to back up your data externally and reinstall windows.
