HELP! Can't logo to Windows XP Professional

[KB]

changed the settings using the Network ID Wizard in Windows XP to " This
computer is for home use and not part of a business network" to network it to
my home laptop. Since then I cannot log on to my PC because it is not
accepting my old password. Any suggestions -- I don't have the
administrators logon.

To gain access to the System default Admin account once hidden:

On Pro Edition, from the Welcome Screen, press ctrl-Alt-Delete Twice. On
Home, boot to Safe Mode, and logon.

Tip:

TweakUI/Logon/Show Administrator on the Welcome Screen
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

Or...

Enable/Disable Administrator on Welcome Screen (Line 5)

Note:

If you have disabled the built in administrator account, booting into
Safe Mode will automatically enable it again (temporarily, for that
Safe Mode session).

Added note: If you want to logon to one of the other users, hold down shift
as the system boots up.

Should have described it better ... this is pro 2003...no welcome screen goes
right to xp login (requires control, alt, delete to provide password and then
straight to desktop)
