Anyways there are ways in which you can find out or reset the password for your machine specifically windows xp.

What you need is a bootable disk that will let you reset the password so to fo this you need to use another computer with a cdrw drive and burn yourself a nice bootable disk with a windows password reset program on it. There are many of these programs online, you can even find free ones. Let me find some links for you....

Link 1 (skip to download section at the bottom and make yourself a nice bootable disk) (you can use a floppy but cd is faster and highly recommended)

Link 2 Contains other 5 links to free password cracks have fun!!!!

maybe Linux KNOPPIX 5.0 can help ????
