when i run the xp CD to repair my windows it asks for a
admin password. what is this password?? i really need to
repair my windows. I can run device manager because I get
this error:
"Microspft Management Console
MMC cannot open the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc.
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC
console, or was created by a later version of MMC. this
may also be because you do not have suffcient access
rights to the file"

i get this and MANY errors on a lot of windows programs i
want to run. Like right now the display settings are
messed up and when i try to change them it says its
running default VGA drivers. I DID have the msblast.exe
and some other rpc virus...i got rid of them and
downloaded the patch and the pc was working great until i
cut it off and got bakc on later and all of the errors
came.....im off topic...anyway it asks me to enter the
admin password when i try to repair windows after i pick
the the directory to repair. PLEASE HELP! im 15 and dont
know much about this issue...
