Windows XP password

1. All that and more was discussed at http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-6142-0.html?forumID=5&threadID=24353&messageID=266812&tag=

2. Did you, while at the too-friendly logon screen tap Control-Alt-Delete twice to get the classic logon? And while there, try the username of

administrator

and no password?

If not, try it.

Go back to safe mode. When the logon screen appears hit Ctrl-Alt-Del maybe twice. This should bring up a box allowing you to enter a username and password. In the username field, type in "administrator" (no quotes and not case sensitive. Leave password box blank and see if that works. The administrator account is always present but may not show without some tweaking. If no password was ever created for it, it should be blank. If you're in, you can delete her and recreate her account.
