    my friend has an XP system, he created 2 accounts, one limited account, and one account named ADMINISTRATOR .

    he changed his normal account to a LIMITED account.

    now he forgot his administrator account's password :S

    he can only logon to the system with the secondary limited account.

    is there a way he can reset the password of the default administrator account?

    thanks guys
