Password reset utility for XP pro on a Macbook.
Does anyone know any password reset tools for XP pro running in Boot Camp on a MacBook? I am a Mac Support Specialist. Someone brought in an MacBook with Windows installed. They forgot their password of course. I tried EBCD with no luck.

in XP Pro
if you are at the login screen and it is the one where the user clicks on their own icon
ctrl-alt-del twice, will pull up the 'proper' login screen
again, admin password is generally left blank
but don't forget to try the obvious too :
password
letmein
administrator
qwerty
pa55word
