Reboot your computer into safe mode and reset the Administrator password. Then you can also reset the passwords on any other profiles, if necessary. Only drawback: You will lose access to any password protected or encrypted files.

Restart your computer, and when the lights come back on, start tapping F8 about once every second...you'll get a screen in a few minutes that will ask if you want to start in "Safe Mode"
Use the arrow keys to select it, and hit enter.
Once it loads, Select the Administrator profile, go to Start/Control Panel/User Profiles/Accounts, select "Administrator", and "Create Password." Once you've saved your changes, close everything, restart the computer in normal mode, and you should be able to log in with the new password.

Admin is password protected too...
BTW you can buy a floppy drive for less than 10 dollars
Or try installing it to a USB key if you have one or even to a CD...on the other PC go into the BIOS (it should tell you at first now, usually the DEL key before windows starts) and look for boot settings and make sure it will boot FIRST from the CD or even a USB key before the hard drive

I know, but you can reset it this way, I've done it before.
