I have forgotten a password that I set up on my laptop.

When booting up the computer I get a black screen with the word "password"
and a prompt _.

Can anyone help me.

If it's a hard drive password, you're screwed. There are no backdoors.

By the way, check your system clock and time zone... They're off by ~3 hours!

Perhaps you should do some research next time before posting inaccuracies ...
