How to bypass Window XP Password Lock

This instructable basically sums up most of the
login bypassing methods posted on Instructables.

STEP 1: THE GOLDEN DISCLAIMER

First, the standard disclaimer that goes with any
good Instructable: This is to be used for
instructional purposes only, and I am not liable
for any damage or destruction to you or your
computer that may occur from attempting this
Instructable. In other words, if you delete your
registry or mess with a school computer and get
arrested, it's not my fault. And don't use this
to get into someone else's computer
either.*cough*

STEP 2: THE EASY PART

Ok, now to start.
If you have a login page like the one in the
intro, go to step 2. If you have a login page like
this one, it should be relatively easy to get into.
Unless the default administrator account has
been changed, all you have to do is type
"Administrator" or "administrator" as the user
name and the password will be either blank or
"password". Then press "OK" and you should be
in.

STEP 3: THE NASTIER PART

If you have a fancy windows login page, things
are a little more annoying. First, click "shut
down" to shut down the computer. Then turn it
back on. As soon as the screen turns on, press
and hold F8. After about 10 seconds, a boot
options menu will pop up.

STEP 4: SAFE MODE

Now, in the menu, which should look like the
picture below, select safe mode and press enter.
It will show a whole bunch of gobbleygook for
quite a while, (which you don't need to know
anything about)and then it will bring you to the
login page. This time though, there should be an
account named "administrator". Click it, and
either type "password" or nothing, whichever one
works. If you don't get in after that, you're
bummed.

STEP 5: THE GUEST ACCOUNT METHOD

If nothing so far has worked, but there is a
non-passworded guest account, you may have
hope yet.
Go into the guest account, click the start menu,
click run, and then type in "cmd". A black
window should pop up.
Then, after typing "net user administrator *" ,
press enter and you will be given directions to
create a new password for the administrator.
After typing in the new password, press enter
and close the window. Log off, then get into the
administrator account with the new password.

STEP 6: IF YOU GET STUCK

If you try this and it says "access denied",
you're out of luck. :(
(If its got security, you probably shouldn't be in
it anyway.)
Well, that's the end. I hope this was useful, and
if you have any questions or suggestions, please
leave a comment.
