Unhappy Forgot Syskey Startup Password
Hey Guys - I'm at a loss.

I recently set my Syskey startup password at work today on my laptop. I've gotten back home and now it's not letting me in. I'm more than sure I'm typing in the correct password, but alas, no go.

How can I go about resetting or getting XP to access my SAM?

Build: WinXP SP3
Laptop: HP 8710w

Thanks for all your help, argh.
Zack
