    I have lost the password for the administrator password on my PC, so i have to log on as guest with no privilages. i am running windows XP, and i would like to know how to find the pass on my PC without inserting the disc or installing anything, because i dont have sufficiant privilages to do that. any ideas?

    Can you boot in safe mode? And the default admin account will be there.

    just restart your pc, and when it just starts press *f8* from here you can go into safe mode and you will be in as admin and you can change i think, if not make a windows disk on your guest username and start it up and from there you can access everything i think lol

    I've got a progrma that you burn to a blank floppy and then you can use that.. Its like 50 credits I'll give it to you for.. It'll delete the admin password.
