I accidently changed my password and longin.

[Guest]

I thought that I was setting up a Cable Modem protocall, but instead I was re-writting my Windows 2000 login and password. I must have made a typo on the initial and repeat password entry because I now have no access to the OS at all. I've tried a myriad of combinations of what either the Login or Password could be, but I can't seem to find them. Is there some way to by-pass the login window or edit the registry outside of actually running the OS?
