Default How do I get my administrator settings back

I was trying to make a new user and somehow the default administrator
user is gone. That's the one that I always use and now it won't let
me access it. I can see the desktop file is still there but I can't
log on as the adminstrator. It doesn't show up in the users section
but if you try to make a new user with that name is says it already
exists. Thanks for any help.


When you create a new Admin Account in XP. The Built-in Admin Accounts
Icon is removed from the Fast User Switching Screen. This is because
you should not be using the built-in account on an everyday basis.

If you need to use it. Simply hit Ctrl-Alt-Del twice. You will get a
NT/WIN2000 style log-on box where you enter "Administrator" and the
password.
