I think you will find Malke was referring to this software
http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ when she mentioned about 'burn the
precompiled CD .iso (as an image not as data).
Have you forgotten your password and am unable to access Vista? If not, and
you can access Vista, and this is a general enquiry because you are worried
that you haven't backed up your password, you can always make a password
reset disk in case of problems. Juts go to Control Panel, Click the User
Accounts Icon and when the user accounts window opens, look in the 'tasks'
column on the left of the window and click on 'create a password reset disk'
and follow the instructions.
If, on the other hand, you are trying to use the software recommended by
Malke then open your CD burning software, select the 'burn as image' option
(obviously this will depend upon your burning software Roxio, Nero etc.
Locate the file you downloaded from the above link and then burn it to a CD.
