password blank
you tried to keep a new password by using space? Or you kept it blank? Please be more clear and descriptive.

if you tried to keep blank by using space then your password is space.

Have you tried removing the battery and holding the power button for say 10 sec.

We are discussing on a laptop, aren't we?

You mean to say that you put space characters as passwords. OK? do you remember the number of characters, then?
