I have a serious problem. I just got a Windows 2000 Compaq Armada from some guy. He lost the password for it so he sold it to me.

This computer does not have a floppy drive, therefor, I cannot just put in a NTFS Boot Disk and copy SAM to a floppy to send it to another computer, then use IC4 (formerly known as L0pcrack or something) to get the passowrds.

How can I get the password if I don't have a floppy drive? I just have a CDROM drive. What would be the easiest way to do this? Also, I have no access to a CD Burner.

You can try ERD commander 2000. It will allow you to reset the password and it is on a bootable CD.
