I changed my domain to workgroup so I could connect to another computer. Now I cannot log back in. No password works and it give me an erorr saying "make sure your username and domain are correct" how can I change back to the domain I had before if I can't log in to the system?

try a blank password. if that doesnt work, download and install an emergency erd sw that will allow you to create a bootable cd to go in and change the admin password to a valid password. Forgive me but the name escapes me for the one I use and it works great. If no one helps you by Monday, post your e-mail address and I can e-mail you the sw then (but it is 15 mb so make sure that you can receive a file that large) The sw works perfectly. Also make sure that you don;t have the caps lock on or something simple like that.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. I have a few friends looking into it also.
