Q321305 How to Log On to Windows XP If You Forget Your
Password or Your Password
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-
US;Q321305
If you only use one account and forget the password, you
must either
find and use a third-party tool to crack the password, or
reinstall XP.
I don't think a repair will change the Administrator
password. Accounts
can also become corrupted or you may make a mistake and
lock the account
out of something important.

Reboot to Safe Mode, select Administrator, leave password
blank.
Then go to User Accounts in Control Panel and
delete/change the
password.
You do not need to reinstall if you forgot the admin or
any other password.
There is a boot disk you can download at:

that will let you reset the password of any account on
NT4, Windows2000 or
XP.
Just follow all the default settings which are for the
admin account. Used
it many
times with great success.
