Default Windows 98 upgrade to XP problem


I upgraded Win 98 to XP and it completed but it evidently
used the Win 98 user accounts for the PC security. I
don't remember the passwords to these accounts. Is there
anyway of getting around this security feature so that I
don't have to reload XP?

Thanks...

Rich;
Not a problem as long as you can access at least one account with
Administrator access:
