A question about windows XP setting. I sometime ago, left a job. As part of the deal, I was allowed to take away the company laptop with me as a 'gift'. After a while, I found a problem. The laptop setting is still the previous employer's and I cannot change anything such as password, install software, etc. It keeps as 'you need to log-in company network first....'.
I would like to know if there is any thing I can do to get rid of such thing. I do not have the XP software CD and all other stuff. So re-format is not an option.

Let me cut things short, how can I gain the full control of this 'gift'?

Thanks in advance!
