    I bought a notebook with installed win2000. 3 accounts were installed: guest, admin and "SW" (with admin rights). I deleted SW, thinking I could just continue using the admin account. After the restart I was not able to log in any more having "administrator" as a user name. Now I can't access my windows. I also can not manage to log in as "guest". Any suggestions for me how to log back on, either by creating a new account over any feature or any other way?
    Not having the selection among user names during log-in like with XP, I'm completely lost. Any one have any suggestions how to get in?
    Thanks!
