Win2k: I Can't Log in!!!!!!

Comment:
I installed Windows 2000 over win98, It says that my username/password is invalid. I CAN'T Log In!!!!! I have not been able to log in since I installed win2k. I tried to get to my Dos Prompt with a bootdisk to install win98 (I leaft the drive as FAT32) but it dosen't recognize drive C. I would be happy If I could get into Win2k, but I must have typed a wrong password when installing. Is there anything I can do to log in? Or is there anything I can do to get to my Dos Prompt??? I don't want to have format the drive (i need to keep my stuff!!) Thanks everyone! -Chris
