forgotten password

[Matt]

i sugest that you go onto the logon screen and then in
the username box type

Username: Administrator
Password: "blank"

try that, then if that works goto strat>settings>control
pannel> users and then delete you account and create a
new 1 not forgetting the password. if you are using the
welcome screen to logon then you can set password hint
featur up so you dont forget it. if you are using classic
logon then you cannot use the password hint
