I upgraded my ME to XP...
Somehow my "Administor" and "Rick" account got crossed up.
When I log onto these accounts I can't delete the other
account. I created a third user account wih administrator
powers. but when I log into it I don't see the first two
accounts. I could even change the name on it to "Rick"
and no problem. When I log into "rick" it logs into the
first acount and I can see both "RIck" and "Rick"
accounts listed. If this sounds confussing you should
live it. Is there a way to reset all user accounts? I may
have to rebuild, and I hate to do that...

Hi,

Logon with the new user account with Admin privileges.
1. Click [Start] [Run] type "Control Userpasswords2"
2. Select a user account you want to delete
[Here you can delete or change ALL passwords.]
3. Restart Windows
