Burn yourself a copy of Nordahl's Offline NT password & registry editor
and use it. You can find it at:

Subject: restore Administrator password


Hi
I am very sorry for stupid question but I need help from you. How can I
restore Administrator password in OS Microsoft Windows 2000 
Server. This server is not any domain controler. It is installed as 
Standalone.
Do you know any procedure how reset password? I have access to the
server 
only physical. I can not login there because I do not know Administrator

password (company changed Administrator guy who not told password for 
Administrator)
Thank you very much for your answer and help.
Best regards,
Filip
