I need help with trying to get into my Laptop. I changed
my profile account. This was set with a domain from my
company but I failed to create a new account, instead I
overwrote the existing one making the domain into a
workgroup. I was hoping this would allow me to use it as a
local (regular) PC. As soon as I rebooted it came up with
Administrator and a six digit password that I put in. This
password did not work. Now I can not get in at all. All
this because I was trying to setup a cable modem for a
faster connection. I am sure there has to be a way to get
in.

Desperate,
 
Disjoining the domain destroyed the client/ domain trust. You'll need to
physically reconnect to the domain and rejoin it to the domain. You can
logon locally with any valid local account. The cached domain account
information is no longer available.
 
I did sort of the same thing but, I was just changing the
user name and disables the primary user. Now I can only
get into windows as a guest so I cannot get in to enable
the primary user. I tried to login as administrator but
could not do it. Would not accept password. Please help
me!!! I read you fis but did not undersatnd what you meant
or how to do that
