try going in thru safemode as administrator into user accounts & remove password. don't type a password in, just hit enter. works for xp so presume will do for vista as i've done it a few times as customers forget to tell me the password.

Try running OphCrack from live CD:
http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/

Use the text version when booting from it.
