Welcome to PC Help Forum

You should be able to click on "Workstation Only" - then enter your normal login credentials. Don't forget to remove Novell once you have logged in tho'....

You DO have a username, you would have set this when the PC first had Windows installed...try the Administrator account details for that PC.

Username: Administrator
Password: whatever you set...

not to sure how you acidentally installed novell like
but if you didnt set an administrator password then it should just be blank
so what you should do is check workstation only
username: administrator
password: [[LEAVE IT BLANK!]]
and that should work unless u did set an administrator password and forgot it
