-- Posted by looking4her7 at 7:54 pm on June 22, 2009 im havin a problem w/ mah windows 2OOO computer...before all we had to do was push enter and it logged in but my mom deleted something and now we cant log in...now i need to log in as the admin and create a new account,but idk the password...any help? -- Posted by MrGregoryMahony at 7:56 pm on June 22, 2009 Hmmm  Have a look around i'm sure you'll find something =] -- Posted by The Wolfhound at 7:56 pm on June 22, 2009 Try password admin, if you are aware hitting ctrl alt delete lets you logon as administrator. Besides, I am pretty sure your mom could not have deleted something to prevent you from logging in - perhaps accidentally changed the password? -- Posted by jham915 at 7:56 pm on June 22, 2009 You could try hacking it with a brute force style program, but I don't know how effective that is. Also, if you haven't changed the admin account at all it should still be username:admin password:password, that's usually standard. -- Posted by yoshiness at 7:56 pm on June 22, 2009 Try booting into safe mode. I would usually recommend that the admin password is usually blank. -- Posted by bmxboy at 7:58 pm on June 22, 2009 Leave out the spaces: http://www.gamecheetah.com/tut     orials/26113-diffrent-method-hacking-into-wind     ows-xp-computer-without-changing-p     assword.html Hope that helps! -- Posted by Wolf at 7:58 pm on June 22, 2009 http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000172.htm -- Posted by twisted angel at 8:05 pm on June 22, 2009 i am not totaly sure, just look around and you might find it...google some stuff to try and help you know hwere to find it. -- Posted by espresso8097 at 8:10 pm on June 22, 2009 To change passwords, use something that goes through the registry. http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/ I am not responsible is this tool fucks things over.  It should work, I know someone who has used it. -- Posted by anonomouse at 2:30 am on June 29, 2009 Quote: from yoshiness at 7:56 pm on June 22, 2009 Try booting into safe mode. I would usually recommend that the admin password is usually blank. Boot into safe mode by continuously pressing F8 while you are booting your computer. I'm not sure about windows 2000, but some versions of windows will automatically log you in as the administrator. If that doesn't work, download/use Ophcrack.
