Hi, try booting into safe mode and you should get 2 accounts. Administrator and user ( whatever the account is called ). Then log on the Administrator account with your original p/word then go to control panel, accounts, user account, ( only one will appear if you have a single user ) Delete password. Then you can reinstate your original password. hope this helps Richard Burdess ----- Original Message ----- From: "Abel Celestin Jr." <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 10:39 AM Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] windows xp password forgotten!!!! > Hey eric it has only one account, and is a stand alone unit!!! > > > Abel Celestin Jr > > Visit our website regularly for FAQs, > articles, how-to's, tech tips and much more > http://freepctech.com > Do you want to signoff PCBUILD or just change to Digest mode - visit our web site: http://freepctech.com/pcbuild.shtml
