try going into safemode, from there navigate "admin" then go to user account and disable password and restart.

if this is a no go then we can try somthing else.

I usually use a BartPE disk to reset all passwords though.

oooo!!!! i had this problem, i had tryed everything, i tryed a lot of programs that claimed to work with other people but was really confusing. use this!!! BEST EVER. its called
Active password changer PRO

Just do a quick search for it on demonoid, then install it on a system and burn the ISO file and boot it. Its so simple and fast
removed

I recovered my password in minutes, luck cuz it was my last attempt and if this didnt work i was going to reinstall windows :O
