What do you mean you're locked out of it?

Thanks. I deactivated most of the programs already, as stated in the instructions above.

I tried to do a reset holding Command, Option, P and R but it still opens up to the default log in page that has me as a user, yet my log in doesn't work.

Any suggestions on a next step?
