administrator password to run repair console

[Bill Browning]

I am trying to run the repair console on another system
because the system files cannot be found. However, it
asks for an administrator password. I don't recall ever
using one when I upgraded to XP from Win98. Is there a
default password?

Bill;
There is no default password.
