I get the login box always and it comes up With administrator. When i press enter it tells me that the account has been disabled and to see your system administrator. --

The suggestion was to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete, not Enter, twice at the login screen.

Elaborate on "Pressing Alt del cont twice didn't help".

- You didn't get the login box?

- You got the login box, but couldn't log in?

It was the user account that was disabled and when i try to llog on to
windows it tells me to contact the System Administrator account. Pressing Alt
del cont twice didn't help.

Which administrator account? Is it the user account you created or the
built-in
system administrator account?

Press CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the log-in screen. This will provide the classic
log-in window. Type
Administrator in the account line, leave the password blank (unless you have
a password set for that account) and press OK.

[Once you are logged in then go to Control Panel and may create another
account with admin rights.]

The administrator account on my computer was accidentally disabled on my
XP
media center. I can not start windows as it tells me to contact my system
administrator. I don't have one. How can I enable the account?
