I know that it was a snap to do under NT and Win2K, because I remember resetting passwords routinely back in that era. However, I was told that XP is a tough nut to crack.

I would much rather spend a few hours of "quality time" repairing a little damage than to spend a week or two reinstalling and reconfiguring all of the applications -- not to mention wasting an install for each application.

Any ideas?
