Brandan, If your have the Admin password or an account that has admin right's, yes you can reset the passwords of users, but without the password of those admin accouts I'm sorry to say, but I think this goes outside of the forum rules.

On Windows XP you can make a password reset disk, which will reset (not recover) a user's password on that one computer. I have not heard of anything equivalent for Windows 2000, though.

Removed by admin - you need to read the forum rules. This is a warning.
