You need to use a bootdisk such as

To boot outside of windows...
Next you need a program that can re-write the Security Account Manager (SAM) which is a database stored as a registry file in Windows NT, Windows 2000, and later versions of Windows. You can't read the passwords, but you can re-set (overwrite) them. Something like

should do the trick

I usually use a program called "Offline NT Password & Registry Editor"
Its easy to use and have never failed.
