Re: restore Administrator password

["Maskeye" <matan () nyotron net>]

 What you could do if thats a fat32 is to insert a win98 bootdisket.
 then enter the windows folder from there to system32.
 now what you need to do is rename logon.scr to something.scr
 and copy cmd.exe to logon.scr
 now reboot the box and wait for the the screen saver to appear
 then you will have a cmd shell with a system privlege.
 from there you should be able to help yourself.
 good luck.
