I am trying to configure desktop and other settings
through the MMC to prevent students from making or
deleting files from our XP Professional Desktop Computers.
In doing so I had locked myself out with an administrative
account. I tried logging on as the default administrator
to get back into the MMC but was denied. I have no access
to the hard drive or Start Menu, except for logging off or
shutting down, because I set this up in MMC and
hit "Apply" then it included all administrative accounts
in the "Lock-Out" process and I can't get in.

Any suggestions other than rebuilding the system from
scratch?

Thanks!!!!!
 
If someone was 'Kewl' enough to lock you out as the Admin, I would blow it
up and start from scratch.
There is a switch in the MMC that can lock even the Admin from changing it,
as I woefully found out myself one day. :)
