My new computer running XP home locked in a program I
could not exit out and I had to do a hard boot by turning
it off. Now it has locked me out. It does not recognize
my name or password not even as the administrator. How do
I get in? Do I just trash my new computer? Also is there
a way to get rid of this the log in procedure. I'm the
only one in the house
