I had a computer left to me but it's password protected. What can I do to remove the password? It has windows 7 on it and it has a dvd drive.

you can use the NT Offline Password Editor to change or blank the current password so you can get in. Here are some instructions: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/toolsofthetrade/ss/ontpre-screenshot-guide.htm .
My recommendation is that you blank the password for now, and then boot to windows, login, and set a password of your choosing via windows.
You don't really need to create a boot disk to do this, but let us know if I am misunderstanding your issue.
