Try the hidden Administrators account. Restart in safe mode, copy your files to floppy.
hey,
You see I have two accounts on my XP Home, mine (admin) and my daughters, which is limited. It has been awhile since I have got onto this computer since I've been using my laptop from work. But now since I need some old documents from my admin account, I can't get to them. I also put the same password on the ADMINISTRATORS account so that my daughter couldn't sneak some downloads in(since the computer crashed last time). I've tried so many things. None of the bootdisks seem to work for some reason because I'd make them, and my computer just restarts as normal, Can anyone help? If so, thanks
