I was trying to use a shared printer so I added my laptop (XP pro)
to the workgroup. After restart, I can no longer log on to my
laptop. It doesn't accept my username and password anymore. How
do I get back on my laptop?



Before adding it to the workgroup, was it part of a domain?
If so... not good.
