Default Administrator Password..

[basepointdesignz]

Hi,

Does anyone know the default administrator password for the recovery console for xp?

Trying to repair my girlfriend's xp install which suffered major problems and whenever i load up the recovery console, it asks me for the administrator password and it's there i get stuck..

Surely there must be default password as i've never set one, and her computer is all home built by me..




Cheers,

Well if you are sure no password was ever set, then I'm sure the only other thing it can be is a blank/no password?

On the recovery console, trying just hitting return and see if it goes through.

For the main screen (might also work for the RC) and at the risk of getting another 'stright up & legitamte' post RF'ed again..

User name: administrator
Password: administrator

has worked for me.
