HELP!! I recently moved and my computer went into storage for the past
month. Well, I've gotten it out and all set up and ready to go and I can not
remember my password to log onto windows. I only remember that it was a new
one I haven't used before!! Is t here any way for me to bypass this problem
and allow me to get into my computer. Remembering the password is totally
out of the question. I just can't recall what it was and i haven't been
able to log onto my computer for a few days now and it is driving me crazy.
Can anyone please help me with this strange problem??? Thanks so very much
in advance!!

try http://www.petri.co.il/forgot_administrator_password.htm

I have used options 1 and 3 and was able to reset the password.

If you can get hold of a WINDOWS 2000 boot disk, that would also work.

hope this helps...
