Hi you need to download a admin password reset boot disk

Generally there is a hidden administrator account which is only available under safe mode (tap f8 repeatedly during boot and choose safe mode). This should by defult have no password on XP home. On XP pro or a locked-down system it may.

If you can get into it, use the hidden administrator to remove your password
