lost administrator password

[Guest]

I cannot locate my password for administrator. Is there some way to create
another? I do have another login & password but need to use my administrator
priviliges.

thanks - Susan

Go to http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd. It works for Windows
NT/2000 Pro and Server/XP Pro. It creates a boot floppy that allows you
to change the password. I have found that a lot of the time it can only
blank out the password but that is good enough to get you in. Much
easier than anything else I've found.

Good Luck,

Steve

Yippee -- It worked. I did it via Safe Mode. Thank you SO much.
