Hello, I really screwed up.  On my pc, using DOS 5.0, when booting up, you
can hit the ESC key to make changes to ports and whatever.  Anyhow, there is
an option to use a password to lock this option out.  Well, I apparently
entered a password without remembering it!  What can I do, without reloading 
the whole operating system.  Please E-mail to: whitley@sunscm1.dseg.ti.com


Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Harlan
