I have recently changed my password on my computer, and
have subsequently forgotten it. the problem is that i was
the only user registered on the system, and i do not have
a forgotten password backup disc. Is there any way to
access my PC? please help, as i am desperate!!

Hi Oliver,

Is this Home or Pro?

With Home, you may be able to logon to safe mode as administrator with a
blank password. From there you can reset the user password.

With Pro this may not be possible. See this:
