For XP Pro: Press CTRL-ALT-DEL twice at the Welcome Screen with no users logged on. You'll get the old Win2K style logon. Enter Administrator and the current password.

For XP Home: Boot the computer to Safe Mode and you'll see the Administrator account on the Welcome Screen. For XP Home, this is the only way to access the built in Administrator account.
