How do I reset my password? For some reason, just found myself locked out
of our other computer (win xp).
 
You'll need to remember the password, or log on to that machine with an
account with administrative rights.

One possibility - a lot of people never set a password on the
"administrator" account. Hit CTRL-ALT-DEL at the welcome screen to see a
dialogue box which allows you to type in "administrator" as the user
account. Try it without a password.

Otherwise, you're stuffed, unless there are unprotected shares (C$ ?) on
your machine which you can access over the network.
