Question

What do I do if pressing F8 doesn't let me on the computer?

Community Answer

On some computers, you have to press the Fn (Function) key and F8 simultaneously. If this doesn't work, your keyboard may have broken or non-functioning keys.

Question

The administrator asks for a password rather than going to safe mode command prompt. What should I do?

Community Answer

If it goes to asking for a password rather than a command prompt, then this means there is an admin password already set. You will probably need to brush up on resetting a password with a command.

Question

What things if we hack can send us to jail?

Community Answer

Lots. Accessing other people's information without their knowledge and consent (which is what hackers do) is typically illegal.
