Download the file below it will let you play with the reg file.
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.
