I am trying to view some files and I get an error message, the message reads
that I need to log in as an administrator. I tried to log in as one by typing
"administrator" in the user field, and leaving the password part blank,
however it gives me an error message that I have the wrong password, and to
check my caps, numlocks and all. I just forgot tthe password. Is there any
other way to log in as an administrator, and fixing the account? Please advise

There is an application called ERD Commander from Winternals. Within ERD
Commander, there is a program called locksmith that can reset the password.
