Write it down somewhere, then it doesn't matter if you forget it, unless you
forget where you wrote it down.

Alternatively, use a word which means something to you, even if it is
something like your mothers name.

Windows XP Home creates a hidden Administrator account when it is first
installed. To open this account boot into Safe Mode (restart computer and
repeatedly tap the F8 key to get to the Boot menu then select Safe Mode)
next click the account called Administrator. It will have no password. Now
you can access the Control Panel->User Accounts and select the account you
usually log on with. Now you can create a new password.
