I use win XP home. Apparantly there's a corrupt file

SYSTEM/pci.sys

or something like that. And so I cannot start up windows. My computer tells me to try to use the Win XP setup disk to repair the file but when I use it, I am required to use the administrator's password. Either I don't remember it or I never set it cuz I've tried all the passwords that I have ever used and none of them work. Just pressing "Enter" won't work either.

Is there a way to bypass the admin password or change it without getting into win XP??

try to "log" as "Administrator" exactly like this but no ( " )...but don´t put any password....just hit ENTER.......try that.......

If what EMDY suggested doesn't work you could always try a system restore.
