Hi,
I've got a user account X with administrator privileges that I'm using with
no problems but I've forgotten default Administrator's password? Is there any
way I can reset it from account X.

thanx

Is this a question?

Yes, it is, my cynical friend.
I've found it myself: net user command solves it from command prompt.
Still I'm not sure how it can be done from graphic user interface. There is
no Administrator account appearing under Control panel>User Accounts.
Thanx

Start -> Run and enter the following;

control userpasswords2

Click OK.
The box next to "Users must enter a user name and password to
use this computer" must be checked.
Click on Administrator in the "Users for this computer" box.
Hit the "Reset Password" button in the Password for
Administrator section.
Enter the new password for the Administrator account twice.
Click OK.
Back in the User Accounts applet, hit the Cancel button if you
had to check the box earlier in this procedure. That will allow
your computer to still automatically logon with your account.

Good luck
