We have a brand new PC at work that is 2 months old and has never been used.
We seem to have forgotten the administrator password. We normally always use
the same password when setting up but I must have made a typo when entering
it. Is there any possible way to get this working again?

Hi

You might try to reset the local Administrator
password with one of the methods mentioned here:
