Create a Password Reset Disk

-If you’re running Windows XP Professional as a local user in a workgroup environment, you can create a password reset disk to log onto your computer when you forget your password. 


-To create the disk:


Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click User Accounts.
Click your account name.
Under Related Tasks, click Prevent a forgotten password.


Follow the directions in the Forgotten Password Wizard to create a password reset disk.


Store the disk in a secure location, because anyone using it can access your local user account




Note - Use at your Own Risk!
