I don't have the administrator password, and can't log
on. The re-enter password disk won't work, nothing
works. Is there any kind of dummie login so i can go
change my user profiles?
 
If you forgot or don't recall the admin password then sorry, your out of
luck. You will need to re-install

Does your computer have more than one user account with Administrator
privileges? If so, you can log into any of them and change the
password of any other one.

Windows XP Home Edition has a hidden account named "Administrator"
that's only accessible when you boot in Safe mode.
