I am trying to run a repair from the CD. On boot I
press 'R' to start the repair and I am ask to supply the
administrators password. I don't remember ever setting one
up and have no idea what it would be. Any help on this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

Offline NT Password & Registry Editor
http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

The system in the link above can reset the Administrator
password offline.

and this as well from the link above:

Newsflash at 2004-01-16:

Support for easy change of RecoveryConsole parameters (one of
them tells RecoveryConsole to NOT ask for admin password).
