Rather than reinstalling as the others suggest, you could try
downloading John the Ripper to a CD and boot to the CD. Follow the
prompts and change the Administrator password (preferably, change it to
a blank password). Then, when you login, login as Administrator using
the new (preferably blank) password you created.
