Use of Recovery Console

K

In order to operate the RC on the setup disk, does one have to enter the
password for the user named "Administrator" or is it suppoed to be a
password for *any* username associated with administrative privileges?

Working on a WinXPH SP1 system that has no user named "Administrator".
However, there is a user with administrtive privileges named "Owner". The RC
is asking for the administrator password and is not accepting the password
normally used for Owner.

password blank.
