Thanks. Teeny doesn't have a CD drive but I've got an external. Just have to figure out which function key gets me to the BIOS to change the boot order.

Then you need to boot to the cd from your teenycomp and follow the directions. This has saved me MANY times! Good Luck!

The fan was making a grinding noise - so I replaced that. In the process hosed the ribbon connector for the keyboard. So I got one from China, slapped that bad boy in and walla! Teenycomp lives! Only problem now is that I can't log in because Max can't remember the password he set up for his administrative account. Anybody know a way to crack the user password?

Thanks for that, Rocky. After all, that's the whole point of a laptop! I'm just a stupid guy. oh well. However, what I have done so far with the laptop is cover its keyboard with som Saran Wrap and hook it into a wireless keyboard and mouse. It is an awsome biacth, 8GB RAM and 1 TB hard disk, and a couple of other fancies attached (blu-ray burneer, lots of USB 3 externals. It's hard to believe you can get this much techno for so little money (< $600). Wow. Makes my aging desktop whimper.
