Hi all, I forgot the Administrator password. How can I log on to my computer? No body can log on. I don't want to format because very hard for me to install every thing again. I hope some one can advice me step by step please... thanks

Many do that, and expect help from others. XP is
very secure.

At the top right of this page is a SEARCH feature. In the empty box, type
forgot password

Yesterday when I started my Laptop, and entered my
password, the computer kept telling me
"Have you forgotten your password".
I entered it a dozen times, and I could not get into XP.
I then turned computer off, then turned it on.
Then all was fine.

Download the Ophcrack LiveCD image and burn it to CD. Boot the machine from the Ophcrack CD and wait for it to do its thing. When it's finished, it'll show you all user names and passwords. It may take some time, so be patient.

Please let us know if you found someone's advice to be helpful.
