Forgot pass for windows start-up

I have forgotten my password for my windows xp desktop and was wondering if there was a way for me to bypass it to get into the system and then change/remove it.

If there is, can someone please help me find out how to do it? It's kinda hard logging onto your computer when you forgot the password.

 

It's not difficult. But you need a XP bootable CD, and follow the steps below.

1.) Place your Windows XP CD in your cd-rom and start your computer.

2.) Boot from CD using “Press any key to boot from cd” option at startup.

3.) Now the setup is inspecting your system and loading required files.

4.) Press ENTER to Setup Windows now. Then accept the Lichening Agreement by pressing F8.

5.) On the next screen gives you the option to do a Repair. You will notice it like a phrase “If one of the following Windows XP installations is damaged, Setup can try to repair it”

6.) Press R to begin the repair.

7.) Let the Repair run. Setup will now check your disks and then start copying files.

8.) Your computer will reboot.

9.) During the reboot, do not make the mistake of “pressing any key”. The system will reboot again.

10.) Keep your eye on the lower left hand side of the screen and when you see the Installing Devices progress bar, press SHIFT + F10.

11.) At the prompt, type NUSRMGR.CPL and press Enter. You have just gained graphical access to your User Accounts in the Control Panel.

12.) Now simply pick the account you need to change and remove or change your password as you prefer.

13.) Once the Repair is done, you will be able to log on with your new password.

I think I'm clear for you.

 

It is also posible to enter into safe mode by pressing F8 at start-up. There should be an administrator account. Enter this account and change the password on your account. This depends on how you installed windows. Hp's and Emachines you will most likley be able to this.

If he has forget the admin password, how can do that.

 

That admin account you can only use if you didnt setup a password while installing windows.

 

You mean that need the skip that admin password setup dialog box, which is found in Windows installations. So that, what is the different having or not a damin password on that stage. I think I'm clear with my question.
