I am currently trying to fix a windows xp machine. The Screen comes up to log in and you have to click on a name. This user does not remember any of the passwords, therefore I cannot login to the machine. Is there a way to override this and get into the desktop. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe theres a program to show you the passwords then they can change them or anything to that effect?

It should have an administrators account on it. Can you try to use that?
Do you know if anyone else has an account on the system? Maybe you can get in with their account.
If not you may need a 3rd party utility to reset the password.
