Hello! I just wanna ask what to do with my lenovo ideapad100. When I turn it on, it opened as usual but it doesnt show the password box. I have tried everything to let that box show and it showed. The problem now is, it automatically typed a password and if I am gonna erase and change it into my real password, its not even working. I mean, the matic password is still there and cant be erased. I have tried to hold the shift key and restart (advanced options), but its not showing the advance options. It only restarted! Help...

You might be able to rescue your computer by enabling the normally hidden / disabled Administrator account and use that to possibly fix the password problem on your local user account.
You'll need to boot from the installation media. If you do not have the installation media on hand you can download the ISO from here

Once you have the ISO, you can use ImgBurn to burn it to a DVD, http://imgburn.com/
or Rufus to burn it to a USB ThumbDrive, http://rufus.akeo.ie/
either of which you can use to boot your computer.
