Solved "New Owner"

[d3ving]

I got a new gateway laptop with vista, it came with a user name installed (New Owner) and I don't know how to change it. New Owner, is the Username I get when I hit Ctrl+Alt+Del, when I try to change it it says "the user name or password is incorrect".

Hello D3ving,

The only way to change this is to create a new administrator account with the name you want, then delete the "New Owner" account afterwards from within the new one.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
