windows login password problem

I don't remember my windows login password on my old computer.

I have created a bootable floppy disk and the login still wants password.

I go into Safe Mode and it still asks for the password. I am the administrator...no one else uses this computer.

The computer is Windows XP Professional.

There must be some way of getting in. Can someone help me please


Thank you in advance

IF you can get to Start/Run/type “control userpasswords2” [less the quotation marks], and click “OK”. This will open “User Accounts” in the Control Panel where you can change/add/delete passwords on the user accounts.
