Logon Blunder

[Sami]

I've enabled the language switch and assign Alt+Shift key
to switch between languages.

I just tried to change the password and when I was
changing password I switched to another language rather
than English (default) and assign new password using
another language, I've successfully given new password and
just restarted the Computer.

But when the logon window came back the language switching
keys are not working (Alt+Shift) doesn't work anymore and
I am stuck. I also forgotten the Administrator Password,
because a long time ago I installed the Windows XP
Professional and could'n't remember the password. There is
no other user configured on the system only two users i.e.
Administrator (in Safe Mode) and my name's user, so tell
me the solution, how can I switch to another language at
LOGON time to enter my password.

Thanx and waiting for your reply:

Hi

You might try to reset the local Administrator password
with one of the methods mentioned here:

Thanks for the answer, but Sir, this cannot solve our
problem, we are asking for the switching to another
language at the time of LOGON.

Hi

If you reset the password on the user(s), setting it to blank (nothing),
it will not matter what language is set at the time of logon.

(note that you should not reset the password for a user that has used
EFS to encrypt any files)

Sami,

you said you forgot the admin password.
Here is a reall good way to chnage it
Boot back into safe modem and log into a account . tyoe in "control
userpasswords" in the runlne with out quotes.. this will allow you to pick
the admin account and change the password
