Hello all,

I installed Windows 7 on a computer that was also running Windows XP, so now it's running both operating systems. On attempt to enter into XP, the system loads Microsoft Recovery Console and asks for an administrator password that I did not set. Would this happen if there was no administrator password, or does this mean that there is an admin password? How can I get around the recovery console and back into Windows XP? Also, does installing Windows 7 on top of XP change anything within XP?
