I am not sure with Home, but pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the welcome
screen after a reboot might give you the ability to type in "Administrator"
as the user.
You could also (perhaps) use TWEAKUI from MICROSOFT to enable the
Administrator account on the welcome screen.
And there is always Safe Mode.

Greetings --

As you've learned, once any additional user accounts have been
created, the Administrator account will no longer be displayed on the
Welcome Screen. This is a default security feature. By design, the
only way to log into the Administrator account of WinXP Home is to
reboot into Safe Mode. For WinXP Pro, pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at
the Welcome Screen will produce the standard login dialog box.
