How do I know you're not breaking someone's system? Besides I don't think its legal to ask or answer this question.

Well if you reinstall windows without formatting the password will get reset and you won't lose your precious data. You will have to repatch the system and some programs will malfunction.

Another way is mentioned here, although I never tried it so far myself, looks interesting
*home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/

Works for NT, 2000, XP

Use NTPasswd.

*home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

It's an open source password recovery utility for Windows NT. Just download the iso from the site (link mentioned above) and burn it to a CD (you could use a friend's computer for that), boot using the CD, and then you can reset your password from there. Before doing anything, read the instructions on the site.

Warning: This utility is for personal use. Do not try to use this for anything that it was not intended for. If you get caught using this thing for illegal purposes, I take no responsibility ;) .
