I forgot the password of the administrative account on my Windows NT, which I took over from my former company (no support there anymore).

Now I can't install anything. How can I create a new User with administrative rights? There are two administrative users on the machine named "admin" and "administrator" but I don't know the password.

Any help? I tried to copy the user to another name (myadmin), and gave the right to access by "anyone" but what's the password of this new user myadmin?

I'm not very deep into OS as you may already know by my writing.

ANY IDEAS ?? ANY HELP ??

It only took about 2 minutes to fix this and I have been trying all day long.
