administator password

[Guest]

I am trying to reset or obtian my administrator password and have not been
able to figure it out and cannot get into the main part of my computer. I can
only get in under guest which doesnt allow me to do much of anything.

Hi

You could try to log on with the original Administrator user
if you haven't tried that already:

If that doesn't work out, you might try to reset the local
Administrator password with one of the methods mentioned here:

If you have another administrator level user account, you can reset it
through the "Computer Management" MMC snap-in, under "local users and
groups".

If not, you could always look for a copy of lopht.
