This is a windows xp machine. It was at the domain log on screen but the laptop is not connected to the domain anymore. I went into the control panel and remove the computer from the domain. Now I can't log back in with the username and password.

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks

1. Wrong forum.
2. Try safe mode to see if there is a local admin account with a pw you know, or possibly no password at all.
3. Linux change pw boot disk.

You won't be able to log in unless you have a local account on the box. You won't be able to log in as local admin unless you know the password (ie. a local account on the box). You might have some luck with a password changer if you can find one that works. Other than that, call your IT dept, and have them put it back on the domain. If you need a local account, have them create one for you.
