I've been using Nordahl's utility for this kind of stuff with great results. Works with Win2k3, Vista (even x64). Really easy, and full featured. And free. Create a boot disk and keep it with you:

You could also reset the SAM via Recovery Console from a recovery disk, but the above utility is far easier, and you don't wipe out all the accounts on the box.

mates,
  need your inputs badly.  we have w2k3 server with
a newly installed application ...  unfortunately, the
system staff who's in-charge for that server has
forgotten the admin password he inputted in the last
few weeks.  any idea on how to recover it  or other
way to login on that server?


advance thanks to everyone.
