Well this one will atually work but be careful to follow these steps closely OK let's start---
1.) First if you have another account other than the system administrator and you can bring up the Windows command Shell which is cmd.exe then your ready.

2.) To open cmd.exe just click on the Start button and click RUN
type cmd.exe once you've done that then your in.

3.) go to the system root directory by typing "cd\" without the quotes, next type "cd\windows\system32\" OR "cd\winnt\system32"
depending on where the Windows [stuff] are located.

4.) once you see system32 at the end of the command line. (warning! here comes the hard part).

5.) start by typing "mkdir tempdir" without the qoutes press enter
next type "copy logon.scr tempdir\logon.scr" also "copy cmd.exe tempdir\cmd.exe" again no quotes, press enter after each line
(type help to understand what you are doing)

6.) next "del logon.scr" deletes original logon.scr

7.) next "rename cmd.exe logon.scr" renames cmd.exe to logon.scr

8.)"exit" quits dos

9.)Now what you have just done is told the computer to backup the command program
and the screen saver file, then edits the settings so when the machine boots the
screen saver you will get an unprotected dos prompt with out logging into XP.
Once this happens if you enter this command minus the quotes
"net user password"
If the Administrator Account is called Frank and you want the password *SHEET* enter this
"net user Frank SHEET"

10.) and this changes the password on franks machine to *SHEET* and your in.
p.s: dont forget to copy the contents of temphack back into the system32 dir to cover tracks

11.) Now log off the machine, logon.scr is the screen saver that will kick in after 15 minutes of not touching the keyboard/mouse at the logon screen. Wait 15-20 minutes and a DOS prompt with FULL SYSTEM rights will pop up, then just to
C:\> net user administrator
and then log in with the new account.
Try this, might work, as long as he didn't change default permissions on C:\winnt and C:\winnt\system32 you should be golden.

Hope this works, be careful and Don't do that girl that you like so much, ya neva know she might have packages!!! Enjoy :)

Find the motherboard manual or download it from the manufacturer. If you don't know what the motherboard is, check with the computer manufacturer. If they can't (or won't) help, google "Belarc Advisor", download and run it. In most instances this will give you the necessary info.

The manual should tell you where the CMOS jumper is on the motherboard and give you instructions for clearing the CMOS. (CMOS is the chip that holds the BIOS information that starts your computer.) Usually, this is a matter of moving the jumper between three pins and moving it back. Doing so will clear all passwords and should enable you to boot in safe mode.

Be VERY careful when opening the chassis and working around the motherboard. ALWAYS ground yourself with a wrist strap. A static electricity discharge will solve your problem very quickly by frying the computer.

How does any one suddenly "forget" the password. Myabe some memory restore might help. It can be bought at walmart.
