    Hi,
    I get a weird pop up error message when I try to change the password I've set , on my administrator account..

    It makes no sense but here's the error :

    Window is unable to change password at this time.
    -
    I think its somewhere along those lines -
    It doesn't say why and I'm not given an error code either.

    I managed to remove my password altogether by typing in the password that I did try to change it to [the one it said it couldn't change, so i have no idea how it did...]

    I was going to install xp because vista has been pissing me off anyway, should i just deal with having no password until then?
    or can someone help me fix this "weird" vista problem.

    Does your new password meet the local machine password requirements?
