you can change the Administrator account password from that other
userid.

If you don't have another account, here are some ideas. Please note
that I haven't tried these. They are a result of a Google search.
MS may have closed this one with SP2.

Simply log in using the built-in Administrator account and reset

By design, the only way to log into the Administrator account of
WinXP Home is to reboot into Safe Mode. For WinXP Pro, pressing
CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the Welcome Screen will produce the standard login
dialog box.
