Help! My laptop has locked and none of my 'possible'
administrator passwords seem to be working. I can see
other people here are having the same problem. Can anyone
help??

if your using widows xp home press F8 when your system
Click to expand...
first boots to logon in safemode you should see an admin
profile (even if you are the admin your profile and a
profile called adin will apear as well as anyone else who
have profiles) by default this is not password protected
you can change your password from here or delete profiles
because from here you have full admin privalages. i
recomend you password protect this profile anyone can
access this and change your password or delete your
profile from here. i hope this helps
