I think that you are out of luck with this. You have removed all the Logon Locally permissions from the machine. Even if you have Network logon Permissions I still don't know how you would go about reseting the security permissions. I supposed you tried booting to "Last Known Good Configuration"?
A long shot would be to try to restore the backup system, SAM and security hives, a procedure explained here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307545
You could try the fix via a parallel installation or by slaving the drive in another NT machine. Quite frankly I think it's grasping at straws... A complete reinstall is probably the only way out of this. You've locked the door and threw away the key!

Please, please, help....no idea how to fix this. Even if the answer is that I'm SOL and have to re-install WinXP. Just hoping there's another way....
I wanted to get rid of that annoying login screen on my home computer (which is running Win XP Pro) so it would go straight to desktop upon startup. I went into Control Panel -> User Accounts -> advanced tab -> advanced user management. In there, I right clicked each user and went to properties where I checked the "Account is Disabled" box for each user. I THOUGHT that this would eliminate the necessity for the login requirement. I also thought that Windows would have some sort of safeguard built in to save us from ourselves. It doesn't...now when I try to start up my computer, it brings up the login screen and no matter what I try to login in as, even as Administrator, it tells me that my account has been disabled and to contact my administrator. Is there a way to back-door this to get in and re-enable myself? I'm still able to get into Win2K (have both OSs installed) but cannot re-enable thru it. Any ideas?
