Randy,

If this is the case, you might need this :

Might be worth a go if you suspect it to be the problem...

When I push the settings button, nothing happens.  I never get a chance to
put in the password.

I think the previous owner may have messed up a firmware upgrade.

Why can't you use the settings button?  If
you know the password (or using the default
password) you should be able to unlock the
phone and do a hard reset...
