What is RAM and why is it important when working with software?

Read the second paragraph for the simple answer

Think of it like this, your computer does projects for you rather it be going on the internet, running a program or whatever you may use it for. Your computer completing these projects can be compared to a library, your hardrive can be compared to the many bookshelves in the library that hold information. The CPU or "brains" of the computer is like a person who goes through the bookshelves to find whats needed and works with it. RAM is like a table at the library where the person would have all the books laid out that they are working on, now of course the CPU would be a lot better at this and could work on many items or "books" at once. The size of the RAM can be compared to the table and having a small coffee table compared to a huge dinner table to hold all the things you are working on is the difference on how much and fast things can get done at once.

Basically RAM is how a computer knows and holds what is is currently working with.

How can you open .exe files to see what is written inside?

It depends on the kind of .exe files.

Some .exe files are actually self-extracting or executable archives. In this case, using a multi-purpose tool like Winrar to extract the contents will suffice.

If there are other parameters involved, Winrar may not do the job. In these cases you can use tools like Universal Extractor, which will extract anything Winrar can extract, and then some.

If you're looking to open exe files with actual code, so that you can read the source code, you're looking at something more complicated than just an unpacker. Unfortunately, it is not easy to do this and understand the results. Code is not meant to be easily accessed, and when it is, it is not in regular text. One way that it can be done, though, is with a tool called PE Explorer. This can decompile an exe file so that you can read the code that is inside.

Again accessing or copying the source code of *.exe file is offence.Most of software developers encrypt it so that not one can access it & use it for any means.

How can you get your admin password back with out downloading or disks?

Unfortunately you'll have to get your hands on a Linux distro and install it to a memory stick seeing as you don't like disks (me neither actually).

From there, you'll have to install a program called chntpw.

-The easiest way to do both of these things is to get a hold of the Backtrack 4 beta (http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack_download.HTML). There is a newer 'pre-final' but that's more difficult to install. Their forums and a little googling will tell you how to install it and use chntpw.

Other than that, there's not much else you can do (besides giving it to someone else to fix)
