I upgraded a machine from 98se to Win2000...

During the Upgrade I added the machine to our AD Domain and I was able to
log in using AD user Accounts.

I've finished with the software install and removed it from the domain and
added it to a workgroup.

Rebooted and now I cannot log in. I've tried every password I could think
of for and Administrator User but nothing seems to work..

Would the Administrator user be there from an Upgrade?

Any help would be appreciated.
