These are instructions if you lose your password,
hopefully you can get into your User Account and make
changes you want from there. Good Luck.
Win XP Home
1. As windows is loading up press F8 repeatedly until
the Windows advanced screen comes up.
2. Select safe mode (the version of windows you want
to use click XP wait until it loads the welcome screen.
3. Select Administrator and it will log you on as
administrator without a password (provided a password was
not created in this hidden account during setup).
4. Go to Start - Control Panel - User Accounts.
5. Select your name and change what you can.
Shut down the computer and restart in normal mode.
****
If you have XP Pro on your computer:-
1. At the log in screen type " ctrl-alt-delete "
twice.
2. In the User Account, type Administrator
3. Leave the password blank and press enter.
(Most likely a password wasn't created in this hidden
account during setup).
