Thanks John, This is good info, however I'm not able to get into recovery console because i don't have the password for the administrator. Is there a way to recover the passworld, or another way of getting there without the password.

Usually the password is blank. Try just hitting the carriage return.
If you think you've changed the password, try this site:
