IT is screwing me over. :(

So I got to school and they school provided us with their own computer with Win7. They tweaked it and whatnot.
My problem is (I don't know what I did) but they disabled my account on my computer. I can log into other accounts but not mine. I tried disabling it but I needed admin privileges. Anybody have suggestions?

PS. Live CDs won't work. Tried so many times with so many distros.

Ask someone who's in charge.

They're all gone for the weekend and I have to write a paper and study.

I'm using the guest account on mine, but all my research are bookmarked and my outlines are saved and I cannot access them.

Got another box you can plug the hard drive into to so as you can pull the data off?

For what reasons are the LiveCDs not working? Is the BIOS locked?

I don't think the BIOS is blocked because the LiveCDs run, but the thing is after it runs, the screen becomes black for gets stuck there.

Well they disabled my account, so I cannot get anything off my hard drive. I'm using a guest account on my computer so I have no administrative rights.

Try using safe graphics mode and other distros like knoppix or even one of the smaller ones.

You could try "Damn Small Linux" known as "DSL", or you could try "Slax" which is pretty fast.
