My home computer had a problem with corrupted files, so the computer service I took it to removed my windows 10 OS and replaced it with Windows 8 OS. Ever since, I've been unable to log into my (new) account with username "davephaelon". My old account with username "dave123" was banned due possibly to linking to a personal website. Unfortunately, when I try to log into physicsforums the old username automatically pops up, with a bar across the top of the screen indicating "banned". For some reason I can't input my new username and password.

Any help would be appreciated.

P.S. I'm on my laptop computer at a coffee shop, where I'm able to access physicsforums on the new account.

Yes, and if no luck with that try clearing you your browsers' history cache.
