XP Professional --Lost Domain & Won't Login URGENT

[mzbpayne]

Your prompt help is greatly appreciated.

I have my work laptop at home. I have done something that now prevents
me from rebooting and loggin in with username/password.

The alert at startup tells me that either my user/pass is wrong or the
domain is wrong. The user/pass is correct, so I must have altered the
domain.

Now I cannot login. I have tried rebooting with F8 pressed down and
restarting with the last working configuration...no luck.

What do you suggest? I really appreciate any help.

You will need to contact your IT department/network administrator.

He is going to have to tell you the password to a *local* account on that
system, such as the built-in "Administrator" account. Domain accounts are
irrelevant at this point.

If he takes his job seriously and follows some kind of security guideline he
will refuse to give you this information and you'll have to bring it in for
him to re-add you to the domain.
