Disabled account

Hi
A client has managed to disable their account in Windows
XP Pro. They don't know of an administrator password.
I've tried all that we could think of including leaving
it blank.

I was wondering if there's any way in without having to
wipe the machine? Is it possible to re-enable an account
through a DOS prompt or if I put the harddrive in as a
slave in a second machine or anything else?
Thanks
