Hi,


my room mate has a shitload of virus. I removed a lot of them, but there are so many more and they just keep coming.
One of them, who knows how, even ****ed up safemode, so I cannot boot into that.

After many hours I've decided to just repair windows so the data can be transferred without constant alerts. The funny thing is that it seems as though the computer has an admin password.
She does not know the password. She says she used some program to auto install windows that came with her laptop.
I'm not getting anything from the asus page that is helping me find it out either.

If anyone knows anything about this, do please post!

There isn't a default admin password for windows, it's set on install.

I'm guessing the ASUS program sets on. I know it isn't asus, admin, admin1234, Administrator

Oh, sorry, missed that.

Have you tried shooting them a email or some deep Google searches.

Yeah, ASUS isn't helping and Google has returned nothing.
