Answer 1

with your additional information.. try using the same ctrl+alt+delete twice

and now give the username as

mycomputer/administrator

and give the password as blank..

might be this will work..

or you need to format your system and reinstall the os.. remember to format the complete system before installing the os

Answer 2

when you get to the screen to put the password in press ctrl+ alt+ delete twice, when the next screen pops up put administrator in the top and leave the password blank, then press enter.

hope this works!!

Answer 3

That is strange.  It sounds like XP installed on top of an old installation, but then the old passwords would work.  Did you format when you installed XP?

The only thing I can think of is to boot to a CD like Hiren's Boot Disk that has a password remover on it.  That always does the trick for me!
