    Domain Problem

    I have a client with a PC that was connected to a domain somewhere. He had a user password which he had forgot since it has been sometime since it was hooked up. I was able to remove the password fo the administrator and the user, however, now I still can't gain access since it states: Cannot log you on since domain Greg_A is nnot available. This system will not be joing a domain but used as a stand alone in a realestate office. How can I get past this or eliminate the domain it is looking for? Any help appreciated.
    It's not the computers that keep having problems, it's the users!!

    Log in as admin, disjoin from the domain (put it in a workgroup), reboot.

    Thanks guys for the support. Sorry I took so long to get back, son got hit by hit-n-run driver. CeeBee, could not login as administrator, had the same problem. However, the problem is resolved, talked the client into buying a new Dell Vostro since his other PC was about 4yrs old. Thanks for all your help.
