XP Pro Logon

My wife upgraded her computer from work to XP. She made a
backup of her files over to our home system. Since
her laptop was configured for a domain I changed
the setup to a workgroup that I use at home in order to
move her files back over, and then
rebooted the system as it asked me too. Now I cannot log
onto the operating system because it is not accepting
her user name and password anymore. I think it is still
looking for the domain. I do not have an administrator
log on and passoword.

I need to change the config back from the workgroup set
up to the original domain setup or how can I get it to
log back on to the operating system with the current
workgroup setup?

I would like to just put the system back to its orginal
state but once again no matter what I do it is asking for
a user name and password which is not accpeting the one
we always use.

thanks in advance,

Matt

You need the assistance of her domain administrators at work to solve this.
Without a local administrator password you aren't going to be able to solve
this one. If you explain the problem to them they will likely reset it so
she can bring it home and copy the files, then rejoin the domain when she
returns.
