    huh?. Can you login to your administrator account? or did you mean you even can't get in to the account because you forgot the password?.

    I think he wants to make the administrator a no need password to login. Since it's XP Pro, just change your password to blank, I think it works that way. Home edition gives the 'Remove Password' option.

    This will make is so you don't have to enter a password to login, it will just automatically log you in on startup.

    As for removing the password, trying typing in the run box
    net user <account> <password>
    Account for you would be Administrator.
    And if you don't want a password leave it blank.
    I think it will work but I can't test it as I am using Windows Vista.
