Raph, I have Windows XP and tried the method above. I am lost when it gets to "Go to users section." My only path there is via Contol Panel > User Accounts. Am I missing something?
Ok I see. Are you using windows xp home edition or professional edition? If you are using the home edition of XP you need to go in as the administrator in safemode and reset the password in the users section of the control panel. I dont use home edition often. However, there should be a check box that displays the option for the password to never expire as i stated in the message before. Hope this does it for you. Take Care!
Raph, I have Windows XP Home edition. I don't want to change it because I skip the logon screen. I just wanted to know why my path was different. Thanks.
On Reboot hit F8 or F10 or what ever it is boot into safe mode start/settings/control panel/user accounts/create admin account __or just change all users account passwords thank u very much next
you can also make a small partition on the harddrive.
install a fresh win2000 on that partition.
then go into the other partition and edit the registry.
and change the password that way
