Windows 2000 Admin Access Problem - HELP ME~

[Kenji4861]

I visit my gf's place and her dad asks if I can setup her network printer.

What I did
The printer was hooked up to a Win 2k box and I wasn't able to see the printer from any other computer.
I tried connecting to the Win 2K box from other computers on the LAN and it asked for a password.

So I created an account username : username, pass : password, worked, it connected to Win 2K box and printer was detected.

The Problem
Now.. I restarted the Win 2K box, it asked for an username, password...
It never appeared before... so my gf's father had forgotten what the admin password was.
We can get into the username, password account I created, but it's a new profile.

IS THERE A WAY TO FIX THIS?

does the new account you made have admin access, if it does you can just change the password for his account

No, it doesn't have admin access.

NTFS or FAT32?

Plenty of fixes

NTFS

I would like to guess...

Extact the SAM file then crack it using LC3 or any other cracking program out there (And pray its a simple password or that you have ALOT of time)

A Unix boot disk can be written with a script to overwrite (replace) Admin passwords. I have the auto boot job from the net. Drop it in, reboot, read A, auto runs. Asks for new password then type it in and BAM. New password.

What else is there?
