cannot logon as administrator

F

Hello. I hope you can help me out with my problem.

For some reason, I cannot access my administrator account. Instead o
the default welcome screen of winxp (the blue background with you
personal image), I'm greeted by the classic logon where I have t
manually type in my username and password.

To further compilcate matters, prior to this, i had uninstalle
stylexp. I had my welcome screen customized and since I've uninstalle
it, the custom welcome screen was removed in the process. So, I'
guessing this is why the computer had to revert to the classic logo
since it cannot find the path to that custom login screen.

The problem is, i changed my admin username to japanese character
prior to the uninstallation process. I cannot type japanese character
on the dialog box but only english text. The only thing that I can d
is just logon as a guest, and as you know, guests dont hav
administrative capabilities.

Is there a way at all to access my admin account? I can't do this whil
I'm on the guest account

To Logon as Default Administrator on Pro Edition, from Welcome screen, press
Ctrl-Alt-Delete, Twice , type "Administrator" and use a blank password (on
Home edition - boot to Safe mode - F8 on restart , same logon)
