NT password lost

[protechpc]

I have a customer that has 2 Compaq Deskpros workstations with NT installed. They inherited the product from the original company, and would like to "clean up" the files. The problem is that the original admin set up a password, and the only thing you can get into is Programs. No right click, no settings, no control panel. No one knows the password, so me thinks I am stuck.

Do any of you know how to get around this password problem?

Got a customer problem? Remember, the old proverb "walk a mile in another man's shoes"

At least you will be a mile away when they start complaining.

Well you could do the reinstall thing OR you can go here

This works on NT4 for sure and may even work on 2000 (I haven't tested it yet)

Have fun
