    Is this a login password for a windows account or a BIOS password before windows loads?

    There are various methods to 'hack' and bypass the password but you haven't specified and OS.
    Simple Methods:
    Windows XP
    Hold down F8 straight away upon boot until the Windows Boot Manager comes up and then press
    boot in safe mode.
    Then simply login to the Administrator account(No password required unless you made one), then
    remove your account's password.

    Windows Vista and Windows 7
    Basically you want to replace a system file(Temporally+Make a Backup), to be more specific a file that controls sticky keys, and this is to be replaced with Command Prompt.

    When you boot up you will be able to carry out a sticky key mode(By pressing shift 5 times), then you will be able to get into
    Command Prompt, then you will have fully administrator privileges to create and modify an account
    from Command Prompt.

    If DeadArtic's suggestion does not work for you, you can also try PClogin. Burn the iso file with Imgburn or other software that can burn an image. Boot. Select the account and make sure the Password is Empty box is checked.
