unexpected shutdown - passwords unaccepted

[Guest]

I just had a building wide power outage. When the (win2k Pro) system rebooted
NONE of the passwords would work INCLUDING the administrator! I suspect the
password file has been corrupted as my normal user did not have a password on
the account (only user in office).

The system is NFTS.

I really don't want to lose my emails.. Is there anyway to erase/reset the
password file or am I doomed to reformat?
