Password

Hello,we have tried networking this pc with our other pc
which is brand new....It has our registered copy of
windows xp on it.For some reason,the other pc has started
prompting for a user name and pass-word at the log-on
screen.We have never created a pasword,there-fore we
cannot get windows started.Please help as this is so
frustrating.I have tried the recovery console but that is
asking for an administrator password aswell!!We've come
to a dead-end...Thank-you
