I've run into this too. Here's what to do: 1.) Goto www.ultimatebootcd.com, then download and burn an image to a CD. 2.) Boot up the disk and navigate to the "Offline NT Password and Registry Editor". 3.) When you run the program, it will boot up a small linux distro, you can use this to blank out or change the Administrator password. If you cant figure out the "Offline NT Password and Registry Editor", or you don't feel comfortable using it, you can follow the walkthrough here: http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/walkthrough.html[^] This is probably the safest, easiest, and quickest way that I have found to recover a lost or forgotten Administrator password. Have fun...

Well you could use one of those password reset disks, but then you must have created one on that account before you forgot the password, since you probably dont have one handy, then that wont help, but consider using them in the future. The only other thing that comes to mind right now is to use a boot CD which mods the registry files, to set the password for X account to "". Google for NT passs reset boot cd or something like that. I think some of them might be unix based.. (not sure, but i know they exist) It will of course reqire that you can boot of a CD on the machine.. :) edit: Seems like ruready511 beat me too it :)
