I just bought a notepad and cannot login in because I do not know any user names or passwords and I need to get in so that I can use this computer while I am deployed to Iraq. I don't care about what is currently on the computer so if it is lost I don't care what do I need to do.

You'll need to recover the local administrator
password in order to logon to the machine.
If the computer was/is a domain member
you will get a choice for domains or a drop
down list for domains. You'll need to select
the computer name once you recover the admin
password.

There are a number of different ways to recover
the password. Do a search on the web for "lost
administrator password" and you'll find plenty of
ways.

You can take a look at this:

You might consider getting windows XP, if the hardware can handle it.

Greg,

If you can get a Windows 2000 Installation CD and
assuming the system has a CD ROM drive you can
boot to dos and delete the SAM file from the C:\winnt\
system32\config folder. Reboot and logon using the
administrator account and a blank password.
