Well, I installed windows XP onto my Mac because I
wanted to install a couple paid windows programs. I
installed windows XP without writing down my
administrator password down, and I forgot the password.

I don't know much about Windows XP and I require some assistance.

I would re-install windows, but I don't want to format!
Is it even possible to change windows admin password through Mac?
Am I screwed? =(

No your not screwed however you will need to download and run one of the following.

Winternals boot CD which will allow you to change the Admin Password.

or Admin Password Remover
http://www.lostpassword.com/windows... which does exactly that.

Memory is a valuable thing especially when it comes to passwords.

Best I can do at short notice.

Any Society That Would Give Up Essential Liberty For Temporary Security Will Lose Both & Deserve Neither.
