Hold the power button down for 5 seconds. And then press the power button to restart the computer.
OR
Ask the user what their password is and enter the information into the window (where it asks for a password)

If you are the owner...if you never set a password...then someone is playing with you. You must have a username if it's XP, so just type your username, and if you don't have a password hit enter.

If there is no password, simply enter the user name and hit enter, leaving the password field empty. If it doesn't work, someone has been screwing around with you.

What brand and model is it? Is it possible that someone tampered with it overnight?
