thanks for the advice - i wish i could try it but in the meantime i tried
booting with the "last good configuration". apparently this had a temporary
administrator password (perhaps set by the dcpromo program) because now i
can't log on. it seems the only way to reset the password (i had no other
administrator accounts set up except the "administrator" account) is to do a
complete re-install. good thing this is just an experiment because the whole
thing has gone horribly wrong!
