Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>security_admin (more info?)

I tried, start/control/userpasswords2/(enter) but it came up wanting to
change the password of the user that I was trying to use to change the
administrator password. So what now? Or do I change 1 password of the user
trying to change the admin.password? Going nuts!
