Hello,

I have a problem with my BM5. When I turn it on, it goes on the Windows XP embedded login page with "administrator" but I don't know the password. I tryed the default ones like admin or administrator or password but nothing worked.

Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?

thanks!

Fastest and easiest is to attach a usb keyboard to it and choose the rebuild option on startup. It won’t delete the E: derive where your content is.

I thought about that. the only problem is that I also have a BV Avant connected to it and I'm not sure of being able to configure it again as it is now.

I solved the problem by doing the recovery and set again all the system.

When you do a recovery you will not loose your music...
