to attempt to del SAMm, start the computer in safe mode, but go to command prompt and try to delete it that way, else boot of a bootable flopy disk and from command prompt use the edit comand eg.

eidt C:\WINDOWS\system32\config.sys

hey use bart PEbuilder to build a bootable cd..
boot from that and go to
c:\windows\system32\config

copy the sam and system both files to your
usbpendrive.

use lcp to decrypt those files.. it may takre 10
to 48 hrs to decrypt. well you got the password.
Enjoy..

another way is to download active password changer
create a bootable cd.. reset the admin password.
