There is a program called 'ophcrack' that will get your paswword back for
you, go to www.sourceforge.net and search for it.

You will need to download the CD image and burn it to disk, boot your PC
with the CD in the drive and your password will be displayed.

Log in as Administrator and change the password. To do this in XP Home you
have to restart in Safe Mode ( the password is usually blank), in XP Pro hit
Ctrl-Alt-Del twice at the start up screen.

There is simpler solution then cracking password by L0ftcrack. use a
simple program called x.x (just look in google) , this small program
creates new administrator user named x
with password x. log on with this user, reset your other user's
password, dont forger to delete x user.
Good luck,
