Cannot remember password and doubt there ever was one. I
have gone to the registry editor and when I get there it
says no value". If there is no password how do I set
one, or if there is one how do I find out what it is?
Everything keeps coming up needing a Supervisor
password. Please help!!! Em

Or
Reboot to Safe Mode, select Administrator, leave password blank.
Then go to User Accounts in Control Panel.
Select the user and change the password.
If you are using Windows XP Pro and have encrypted data, you may
permanently lose access to the encrypted data.

After this is resolved, take precautions to not lose the password.
