I have by mistake deactivated all user accounts in
Windows XP pro.(Also administrator account.. How is that
even possible??) Now I can't log on to windows at all.
Administrator nor guest works. (It's not that I have
forgotten my password)
And it does not work to start the computer in safe
mode and then log in as administrator! It just says that
the account is blocked and that I should contact the
administrator (AND THAT IS ME)
How do I log on to my computer????

Use an F8 safe mode boot and log in with the builtin
Administrator account (which may have been renamed).
Then user lusrmgr.msc to enable the other accounts.

And how exactly is this done? I'm getting the same login
dialog in safe mode.
What got me in this situation is I have changed the
computers name and changed it from a domain computer to a
workgroup. Up re-boot I can not log in now. I know all the
user names and passwords, but none of them are working now.
