What type of Windows are you using? there are ways to get in...the easist being that you log on as another computer admiastrator and just change it.

They have Xp pro on the system. How do u logon on as admin, the logon screen is only showing one name on the logon screen.

Okay, here goes...To acess the Adminastrator account on Win XP Pro, do the following.

1) turn on the computer, etc.
2) When you get to the logon screen, press control, alt and tap delete twice. This will bring you to the Win 2000 logon screen.
3) at the username prompt, type Administrator, then type the password that you entered at the time of installation.
