Robert:
Thank you for the web site devoted to a
study of the passwords for win NT and win 2000.
They have done a thorough study of the problem.
I resolved my problem by deleting the files associated
with the password. Now the computer would
not boot at all. I went into the repair mode and it
offered to use the files from the last successful
boot. It booted to the point of asking for the
administrative password. I entered a blank password
and win 2000 went on to load from there.
