Password help, windows xp

[awelsh]

Is there a way to get around the password on windows xp login screen?

Long story short, my dad left me his pc when he moved to holland, no one can remember the password.

I deleted my username off it ages before so thats gone too, ive tried logging in by doing Ctrl + alt + delete and typing Administrator but thats been removed.

Its windows xp home edition if thats helps, pakard bell.

Thanks, awelsh

Hold F8 (I think) when your computer starts up and choose login to the administrator account. You should be able to set up a new account/change password on old one from there.

erm

restart - hold f8 - safe mode - administator account - control panel - click the account - remove password should work, ask ur dad first

He said the Admin account has been removed.

I've recommended this to a couple of people before and it's worked for them.
