When trying to repair WinXP, I am asked for the Administrator's password. I
never had one. What do I enter when asked this?
Thanks

The password is blank if you have never had one.

I assume you are trying to access recovery console. By default the
Administrator account does not have a password. Just leave it blank and hit
enter. Now this will not run a repair install of XP it will only get you
into the recovery console where you can fix your boot sector, check your hard
drive and other diagnostic routines. To repair install Windows XP, follow
the steps in this article:

Good Luck,
