Sounds like you need to reset the local administrator password....

Note - you'll get a lot more help in here if you pretend you're writing for
your very strict high-school English teacher - punctuate, use separate
paragraphs, full sentences, avoid run-ons. Your post reads a bit like a
combination of James Joyce, Faulkner, and e. e. cummings! :-)

Also - if you bought this from someone else, you might want to just give the
computer a clean new install of WinXP and all your needed applications (you
*do* have CDs/licenses, right?) so you know exactly what's on it and how
it's set up.
