I was fiddling around in the control panel with the only
user user account and while drunk I must have changed the
password. In fact I also changed the username into
something that looks like a scentence. The username
was "Will". Now it reads; "Will is new Revo". Hangover in
tow I cant remember what the passwork is or if I messed
it up when i changed the UserName. I am embarased to say
the I am an MSCE an MCP, MCP+I & an MCT. There must be a
way to get back in. I own the copy of XP and installed it
myself. In any case If someone get give me some help I
could sure use it. There is an e-mail session that has
years of White papers and solutions to problems as well
as documentation that is priceless to me and I cant get
to it. Please help! Thanks in advance.

For Pro: Press CTRL-ALT-DEL twice at the Welcome Screen, with no users
logged on, and enter Administrator and whatever password you may have set on
this account at Setup. Now you can go to User Accounts and change the
user's information back.

For Home: Boot in Safe Mode, and you'll see the built in Administrator
account on the Welcome screen.
