[NBLUG/talk] [SoCoSA/discuss] resetting pw on an XP box

That did the trick very nicely. I wonder what the problem was with knoppix. Probably layer 8 problem. 

Also, anyone knowing my boss would probably know that he has no idea who he bought it from. I have visions of a truck in an alley that it somehow fell off of. 

(imagine a cute or dirty tagline here)
