Help w/ admin password.

My older brother was being a stupid little dummy, and was playing with the computer last night. He somehow made my account singular ,and his into an admin, and won't gvie me his password, so I will have to get it myself.

1. I tried to to the Safe Mode trick, but the administrator account needs a password.

2. I tried going ino Computer management and editing accounts but it all said "ACCESS DENIED".

3. I did the "Net User" trick in Command Prompt, but it said "ACCESS DENIED". What do I do, without re installing the OS?

Sorry time out :

Zero Tolerance on Piracy
NO WAREZ. NO SERIALS. NO CRACKS / CRACKING / ILLEGAL PROGRAMS. Anything that can be used in software piracy or other illegal software activities will result in a ban. Same goes for abusive programs like mailbombers, forum and usenet flooders and email harvesting bots. This also includes unreleased products. Workarounds which comprimise security, bypass password protection, or otherwise go to gain unauthorized access to private data or information is prohibitied. Links provided to locations that offer tutorials or tips for any of these activities are also forbidden.

Macko, use the Report Post function, do not take rules issues into your own hands.

Dorkus, he is correct though. We can't offer this kind of assistance here because if we offer password cracking assistance, anyone can browse these boards and hack into corporate systems where they don't belong using the information provided. We keep these forums legal and above board. You are going to have to reinstall the OS or get/reset the password through other means.
