OK -- Maybe a simple solution (maybe not.. we'll see) ... here goes -Have a
computer that some knucklehead made an administrator name and passworded it.
Person is no longer around and no one seems to know the p/w. I need to know
how I can reset it. The computer is in need of some work and I can't access
administrator options. The people who use it (a standalone PC in an office)
just have been signing on as guest.

I hope someone has a useful suggestion... I am at a loss....

Thanks!
