re: log on password Thursday, January 4, 2007 at 6:19 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by DEX (11846 messages posted) You can also help some one :>) Please revisit your post so that others on this forum will know if the solutions were helpful or not helpful ........ Because you can't logon to change it you will need to use a 3rd.party software to reset it so you can get in. One of the best is below. Austrumi (v0.9.2 - December 2004) Austrumi is a Linux bootable ISO image for recovering NT passwords and other cool tools and methods, sized for Business Card size CD media (50Mb). It allows you to change any password, including that of the Administrator, on a partition occupied by Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Simply boot the CD and when you get to the initial boot prompt, type: boot: nt_pass This will launch a console utility that will detect Windows partitions on the hard disk and provide you with a menu to modify any user or Administrator passwords on the Windows system. It will even give access to the Windows registry for recovery purposes. Quite a handy utility to keep in your wallet (AUSTRUMI is small enough to fit on a business card-size CD) if you are unfortunate enough to having to deal with Windows machines in your line of work.
