Answer 1

Ok for 1 passwords are to user accounts in the case of windows login passwords,, try to log in with a different account is possible and very often that people have a user account password protected and no password on the administrative account which u can access by using the administrator log in,, other than this the only other way is to remove or edit the password hash in the SAM DB file under system32/config/ this will only be accessible while the drive is dead or from bootable media like linux knoppix CD  

Answer 2

try to get go into safemode

by pressing F8 as soon as it is starting up

then go in as administrator

and try to make another account

Answer 3

What you can try is open up the case after you disconnect the power supply.  Remove the battery for a few minutes and then put it back in, then turn the CPU back on.  It should clear the password from the system.
