I have a similar problem at the post below, but I am able
to get into the system under one account. The computer
is no longer part of the domain and I can not get in as
the Admin or any admin accounts. The only account is a
user that is logoned on as a guest. Is there a way for
me to recover or change the admin password. There are a
whole bunch of files one really important one is my
*.pst. I says some program out there (ERD COmmander) I
really do not feel like purchasing this software even
though it looks like a good program. I guess I could
install the OS in another file, but that is only temp.
Please help.

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