Hi - I accidentally checked "disable built in administrator account" while I
was trying some stupid things in my PC. Now I can not log in to my PC. Is
there any way to by pass the log in screen? I have windows -XP. I tried to
log in from safemode command prompt option, but it is still taking me to the
log in screen instead of displaying DOS-prompt. Please help. TIA

AFAIR, the standard Nordahl password resetting CD has a facility to
re-enable accounts. After resolving this issue, consider creating a second
admin account. Having a single admin account can be very unforgiving.
