    Like the latest Windows version released in 2009, supporting Windows 7 upgrades a number of new features, such as progress in the touch and handwriting recognition for virtual hard disks and improved performance on multi-core processors. In less than 1 year, it has surpassed Windows Vista in the global market share. And there are lost more and more issues about Windows 7 password online, such as:

    Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. The only way to reset your windows password 100% safe is to use a software called Reset Password Pro.

    The software allows you to create a boot-disk, that can be made on a CD/DVD or USB stick. The boot-disk can then be inserted into any locked machine, and it's a simple case of pressing reset. Here is their official site: http://www.resetwindowspass.com/

    No, you do not have to re-install windows, there are tools to reset your password, I've reset forgotten passwords several times...

    HP mini doesn't have cd-rom drive so it's tricky, I have used usb thumb-drive to do the reset before though - You need to create a bootable usb stick (note the stick will probably have to be wiped to do this so back it's contents up first)

    How to use it with USB: (not sure if it's the same tool but it looks similar)

    I think it's not difficult for you to prepare a blank CD or USB. Then log in to any computer which allow you to download something.

    Go to Windows Password Key official site and download it, install in that pc and burn the ISO image to a CD or USB.

    Then use this to reset your locked pc, it's 100% recovery rate, so i am sure you will enter your netbook soon.

    Luck!
