just a thought......Do you have an account on the machine with admin rights besides the admin??  If so, just go into comuter management and change the password for the admin.  That should fix it.  If not, you might want to try L0ftcrack to retrieve the password.

Offline NT Password & Registry Editor (http://\"http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/\") works like a charm.
