I BOUGHT A COMPUTER OFF E-BAY. THE COMPUTER WON'T LET ME
THRU THE LOGIN. THE PEOPLE I BOUGHT THE COMPUTER FROM
NOW SUDDENLY DON'T EXIST ANYMORE. I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO
GET THRU THE LOGIN OR DO I JUST HAVE TO REFORMAT THE HARD
DRIVE. HOW WOULD I DO THAT ON A THINK PAD. I CAN'T GET
TO THE BIOS FROM THE NORMAL WAY. IN THE BEGINING
