After many many attempts, I have remembered my admin password and am now 'in'. Strewth, now to set up some easy to remember acconts and an easy admin password...

I have been sent a code to usetoday only, along with a login of 888888, but all I get is 'user does not exist' message.

If I carry out a firmwaer update, will this erase the passwords? I doubt it but I thought I'd ask.

Now I am confused. If i enter 888888 as the user, and any password, the error comes back as 'the user does not exist'. If I try to login as 'user' or 'admin' I get invalid password. Looks like I have done a real good job of locking myself out...

I tried that one as well with no luck, 'invalid password' message. Thanks anyway.

Hi, I have an Adata Apollo ZEUS8 DVR, and I have forgotton the admin password. When I setup the unit initialy, approx a year ago I (stupidly) deleted all other accounts that were preset, so the passwords ones suggested by my supplier do not work. (666666, 88888 etc etc). They suggest I send it back to them (which I do not want to do if I can help it), so I assume there is a way to reset it to factory defaults. I have tried removing the CMOS battery and leaving the unit unplugged for a week, also various other methods with no success. I am electronics engineer by trade, so have no problem with soldering any links on the PCB if required to do a hard reset. Can anyone help? Thanks.
