As a domain admin, you could change your Administrator password on the server. Then, logoff as domain admin and log back in as administrator with the new password.

Boot the machine with Ophcrack. It takes a while, but it'll give you all local user accounts and passwords.

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