Reply: NT doesn't have a Safe Mode. The closest you can get is VGA mode but it doesn't lower any of the security.

Reply: I didn't try this myself but have read it somewhere:
1) move the file c:\winnt\system32\logon.scr somewhere safe
2) rename the file c:\winnt\system32\musrmgr.exe to logon.scr
3) logout and wait
4) after some time the screensaver (=user managment) pops up and U can make an administrator account.
5) exit user manager and login with your fresh acct!
good Luck.
