    Hi, I have a Sony Vaio with windows XP Pro but I don't know the password to any admin accounts. Does anyone know how I can somehow delete the account or reset the password? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Not unless your account has admin privilidges.

    You'll need to reinstall.

    This definitely works but make sure you just reset it to a blank password, I haven't had much success when trying to change it to something different!
