Exclamation Hey GUYS! XP N00b here, need help ASAP

Hey guys my Name is Chris and I am new to the forum here. I currently just ran into a big problem with XP and thats why I am seeking assistance. I had that annoying logon screen when starting up XP and tried to get rid of it. Well I obviously didn't do something right: I went into the control panels and deleted a user I had created thinking that may get rid of the logon, it obviously didn't and now I cannot log on to my computer. The user name is default and previously i would just press enter with no password entered and it would log right on. Now it won't do that I cannot log on to my computer now. I did not create any passwords that i fogot about or anything like that. I need to find a way to bypass this logon screen or something. Please help me out here.

thanks, Chris

hmmm, u really shouldn't delete anything in windows that u dont know about. Next time try opening the start menu and clicking on the picture next to the user name or going to the control panel and selecting user accounts while your logged in on the admin or main account. However when u install xp, one of the first questions it ask's, is for a admin password. Which is sort of like ur default password for when u need to get back on when something like this happens. if u can not remember it, then i am pretty sure u are out of luck. i think ur gonna have to boot xp from the cd and try a recovery or fresh install, if that doesnt work, u can always reformat, sorry man.
