Just the other day XP lost my Administrator Password. It was there
one day and gone the next. Then to add insult to injury, I thought that
I would try running sfc /scannow, no luck. I then rean a repair install
and then was locked out of my computer until I reactivated over the
phone. No I did not forget my password, I use the same root password
for 6 Linux distros and 3 windows.
