I have a password protected log on for my Windows XP Home
Edition, and I can't remember what the password is. How
do I reset the system to allow myself access to the
system? I am the administrator, so no one can reset it
for me. How do I either find out what the password is or
reset the system so I can put a new one in?

Thanks a million
