Changing password for Windows 7?

Question

I bought a laptop that was on display, and I want to establish a password, but every time I try, it says "Windows cannot change password." I have tried to change it via the "Manage" button under "Computer" but there is nothing there about users to select. Also, I tried changing it via command prompt and restarting the computer, but that did not work either. Finally, I tried resetting my password using a USB and that did not work either. Someone suggesting creating another account and managing a password for the main account I wish to use. I gave up on that because the account I created was taking way too long. Is that the only way for this to work? Or is there a quicker way?

Thanks.

I think if you go to the control panel, select accounts and users (or something like that) it will say, "change picture", "change name", and "change password/set password(maybe)." You want to change your password so select that. That should get you to the place you want to be! Hope this helped!

Maybe you could try to remove/change the password from "outside" of windows...
