Trying to use Recovery Console.



So I want to use method 2 listed here:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q315341&ID=KB;EN-US;
Q315341

to re-install by starting the computer from the Windows CD.

I get as far as "Which Windows installation would you like to log onto?"

I don't know what this means but by typing any letter it says; "Please
select a valid installation number." So using the word "number" as a clue I
type 1 which gets me to "Type the Administrator password".

I have no passwords. I used no passwords setting up this OS originally.

I am trying to recover the system because it is asking me for a non-existent
password when I try to boot up.

So, another frustrating computer loop.

Any suggestions.
