google for and download "trinity rescue kit"
burn it to a CD or use Multiboot ISO to enable your pen drive to boot Trinity.

boot Trinity from the CD or USB.
after it boots up, type the following(case sensitive)
winpass -u "Administrator"
follow the steps and select the option to clear the password. you can replace "Administrator" with any other user name.

^^ excellent method.

also use "hiren Boot CD" it has GUI Tool for replacing pwd

I think you need Windows Password Key. It has solved 100000 users of that problem in one year.

Just download the tool and burn the iso image to your cd or USB, then use it to reset your locked pc.

Windows Password | Lost Windows Password | Windows Password Reset | Forgot Windows Password

I've used that program. In addition,you need a CD or USB to do it. Actually, it works.

 

[thetechfreak]

^ but that process is very long!

 

[Kaom]

Long? You need to go to the official website to learn. It's easy.

I just download it from another computer and install it. Burn to a blank CD and insert it to my locked computer to reset.

Hope it can help you too.

With trinity...
boot->enter a command->change or blank the password->done

Use Hiren's Boot disc software. Write it on a CD and make it bootable. When your computer boots boot from CD. From the menu choose 'boot from Hiren's disc' and whoa! you are running XP without any password needed!!!
