Recovery Console Admin Password reset

I had to take a workstation from a clients domain today due to corrupt system
files. Now I can't get into the recovery console due to password
restrictions on the local pc. Is there any way to crack the password so I
can a run checkdisk or any other administrative tasks that I need to?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Steve, but I tried both of them, the floppy and the cd and wasn't able
to reset it. I tried both a password and a blank password but neither of
them would work.
 
What exactly happens?? I have tried it more than a few times and it always
worked. Make sure you select the option to save changes before rebooting.
What "password restriction error" do you get? --- Steve
