They wouldnt help anyway as its a software problem.
IMO chances are you keyed in the original password
with caps-lock on.

stop top posting!

If you have the burn disks re-burn the beast.

If you don't ask news groups very nicely (no top posting) and maybe someone
will send you a set if you let people know the model

failing that, offer Tosh 20 quid for a set.

Yup
8bits = 1 byte
Each left bit is double that of the one to its right. Like so.(0=1bit)

0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1

Bits are either 1 or 0, true/false, on/off etc. you just add up all the
values of
the "on" bits. ie

01100001 = 64+32+1 = 97
97 is the ascii code for "a"

so "a" in binary is 01100001


In a nutshell, thats it, a pretty small nutshell too
