"Last Known Good Configuration" is just a registry rewrite - it goes
to a backup (store'd in the registry) from the last time your computer
boot'd normally.

Your file should still be available. Maybe you save'd it to a
different place.

You could always use the XP CD repair option and go in as Admin - then
change your password.
