First backup everything important.
Then: http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/
And Read the Fine Manual for it before you use it or you mess your installation.

I am assuming you are running windows XP. Did your other logon also have admin rights? If so do the following. from control panel administrative tools click on computer management then click on local users and groups. click on users then right click on administrator and click on set password. You can then enter a new password for administrator.
Here's another helper. At the bootup of the computer, it will ask if you want to go to system options. I think you press [delete] to access it. In one of the option menus, there is an option for asking for the password at the startup. Simply disable it and save your changes. This ahould take care of that problem.
erm...that's for the BIOS password, which has nothing to do with the Windows administrator password.
