If you are using XP Home, bring the computer up in Safe Mode (press F8
plenty of times during startup & you should get a menu from which you can
choose Safe Mode) - the Administrator account which lurks under the covers
will appear - use this to sort things out, then restart in normal mode. I
hope this helps.

Simply log in using the built-in Administrator account (which
cannot be deleted) and modify the desired account. By design, the only
way to log into the Administrator account of WinXP Home is to reboot
into Safe Mode. For WinXP Pro, pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the
Welcome Screen will produce the standard login dialog box.
