>I can get into windows xp as the administrator. It's the
administrator password to that was first used when
loading XP I can't get pass. I'm trying to reload xp and
I select "R" to repair and the it ask what you want to
change; ie... "1: c:windows". I select #1 and then it ask
for the password. I can't get passed that part.
I've already been to the site you sent. I need to delete
the password or have the computer show me the password.
Thanks ED
