You need to go into control panel, user accounts, change
the way users log on or off, then uncheck the boxes.
Then log off current user, then type "Administrator" as
username, then put in the administrator password that you
set up and you should be in

I think all she needs to do is try hitting CTRL-ALT-DEL _twice_ at the login
screen. This should allow her to enter the administrator login & password.
