HELP!! Cannot Access Computer . . .

Using Windows 2000 pro on my other computer and somehow i changed the logon information and have no clue what it's set at - i cannot access my computer now (cannot log on) as i AM the administrator and contacting me for help is proving futile

is there a way to bypass this - just tried f8 and booting with last known good config and it came to the same logon prompt and now im stuck

hoping you guys can help

If you don't have the admin password, then it gets messy. I'm sure there are tools out there that can crack them. Only ones I know of only work against NT4 domain controllers (use it to find weak passwords).
If you have data that you need to get off, you can do a parallel install of Win2k, or install another primary drive, install Win2k, then add your org drive as a slave. This will allow you to get you data off.

I did google search and found this page. I've never tried it before:

Good Luck!
