When I'm trying to start up through recovery console in
Win XP Home edition, it asks me to enter choice 1:
c:\windows, when I enter 1, a message prompts: Type the
administrator password, I entered the admin password that
I set up in Bios Setup utility with F2, but says invalid
admin password. Please reply.

You need to type the windows XP administrator password and not the BIOS
password.

FYI, Windows XP Home Edition has a blank administrator password by default.
So, just press enter
