usually what you should do is call your computer manufacturer. but since that computer is just given to you by someone, that person should be able to help you with this administrator stuff.
ask for the installation cd that comes with the computer from the one who gave this to you

a million. pay attention to what i'm saying instead of asking prescripted questions. Did it take place to you that no longer all people calling is a entire moron and that they did verify the failings which you're scripted to ask earlier they ever even called. while explaining what i've got already checked, that is exceptionally annoying to pay attention a reaction of "Did you verify (notwithstanding I only have been given carried out saying I checked)" 2. I agree. 3. although, it is likewise decrease than useful to call and say "i'm getting an errors" so a minimum of have it written down so which you will furnish the precise errors while/if asked. 4. Heaven forbid every physique might attempt to be personable or well mannered. 5. "Screwed up" isn't useful. the place the particular concern lies may be. 6. I agree. 7. well-known rule of thumb is call whoever made it - hardware OR application smart. I do would desire to disagree once you assert you do no longer use the internet to fax - there are a number of information superhighway and e mail based fax courses. 8. nicely, incredibly, there are a marvelous type of circumstances the relationship themes are no longer "only me". 9. make beneficial that the comments aspects are hassle-free to navigate so no one HAS to call to furnish that style of advice. 10. certainly, you gets a commission to help people set issues up so end complaining. in the event that they like help, that's what you're meant to be there for. 11. I agree 12. I agree 13. sure 14. do no longer assume that i don't comprehend desktops, in all risk greater advantageous than you, and confer with me as such 13. Being impolite and not listening makes me prefer to come again all the way down to the call center you're sitting in questioning you're smarter than me to knock you off your chair.

Do a clean install of Windows including Formatting the hard drive.
Don't have Windows? Call the person that gave you the PC, it's probably kicking around their house somewhere.
OR try Kubuntu Linux.

Contact the person who gave you the computer and ask them what the password is...you can then go to control panel go to user accounts and change the password to one of your choice. always change the password if someone gives you a computer.
