If ANYONE can help; I'll be VERY appreciative.
 
I'm obviously missing something here. If you mis-spelled your login
password, just login again and spell it correctly.
 
I think I misspelled the 2nd entry when I re-set my password!!!
I need HELP in logging BACK in my system!!!!

Log in with any other account that has administrative privileges and
change your user account's password from the User Accounts applet in
Control Panel. If there are no other user accounts with administrative
privileges, log into the normally-hidden built-in Administrator
account:

In XP Home, boot the computer into Safe Mode. Do this by repeatedly
tapping the F8 key as the computer is starting up. This will get you to
the right menu. Navigate using your Up arrow key; the mouse will not
work here. Once in Safe Mode, you will see the normally hidden
Administrator account. The default password is a blank.

In XP Pro, you do not need to go into Safe Mode. At the Welcome Screen,
do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in
"Administrator" and whatever password you assigned when you set up
Windows.

If you reset the built-in Administrator account's password in Home or
have Pro and don't remember the password, use NTpasswd to change the
built-in Administrator account's password to a blank.
