If you have windows XP. You can restart your computer and tap F8 over and over while it’s booting. You will see a selective startup screen select safe mode. Then choose administrator as the account to load or type administrator and leave the password blank to log on. Click ok to the warning. Go to start and click “run,” type “Control Userpasswords2” then press enter a window will open, click the check box that says “ Users must enter a username and password to use this computer” so that the box is NOT checked.

-hope this answered your question.
