OK, I did something dumb.
I forgot my password for my user account in Windows XP Pro.
The two accounts now are Margaret and Guest. I am logged in as guest because it doesn't need a password.
So how do I gain access back into my Admin Account.
I know there is another Administrator Account but I don't know how to have it show up.
Help me smart people! |

at the welcome screen hit "ctrl-alt - del" twice in a row
then manually type in "administrator" and leave password field empty
then goto control panel --- user accounts and remove your password |

Your password was 4 letters, something reallly silly.
Does that help? |
