If you are referring to your windows password, I used this utility to clear the passwords for Admin and user accounts.
It was pretty straight forward, if you get stuck let me know.

I did what Brink advised in a former post & made a password reset disk with the aid of a USB flash drive. robinpe

What happens when you follow the steps to create the disk,
but you cannot get to the "Forgotten Password Wizard"?
