I signed several times under my password. If you signon too many times, can you be knocked out? I cannot sign in now at all with the correct password, and I cannot reset it as I do not have a reset disk.

If a password strategy is configured and you sign on many times and you exceed a certain limit, you will be unable to enter another password for a certain delay (The delay depends of the password strategy configuration). If you don't want to wait for the end of this delay, you can proceed by a system restore for your Windows 7 OS. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html Section: Through System Recovery Options at Boot If you proceed like that, you will loose all the documents created or modified after the creation this restore point.
