    How I can recover the windows 2000/xp password
    Have you tried scanreg/restore? This will take you back to where you could get into Windows. Then you can change or delete your old password. To do this, shut down in DOS mode. You should be at a windows prompt.(C:Windows)
    Type- cd command. This should take you to - C:windowscommand.
    Now type- scanreg
    Estore,( a space after the word scanreg)
    A blue screen should come up wiyh dates that should get you back into windows. Highlight that date and restore. Good luck, Tom
