if your file system is fat32.you can use the starting diskette start to dos
mode,and delete the file :C:\winnt\system32\config\sam*.*,and then you will
find the administrator's password is null,that means you can login system
use administrator account without password!
if your file system is ntfs,so you can't start to dos mode,you should
connect your hard disk to another computer in slave mode,then you can delete
those files as well.

this method can be useful in windows2000 systems, i have not tryed in XP,but
it will be,just try it,good luck!!!
