I downloaded password recovery, burned it to a disc but then this disc will not open in another computer when I am trying to open it from the bios boot screeen. My windows log in is stuck on the administrator log in and my password is not working

Yes, download the CD image zip file, unzip it and burn the ISO as an image to a CD.

I hope it's windows/system32/config. Is Windows install in C:\Windows?

Should work. I've used it many times to remove the Administrator password without a problem.
