My password is not working at the prompt for password in the recovery mode
with the XP CD.

Null will not work either.

Any suggestions? Keep in mind I windows will not load in any mode, nor can I
just get a prompt.

Thanks,
TR

Here are two sites with info on creating a bootable CD that will allow you to
reset the Administrator password.

Ultimate Boot CD for Windows®

If this PC came with XP pre-installed, then the vendor (e.g., Dell, Gateway)
may have set a non-blank password. Contact their support group.
