Forgot password for your xp!! try this
1-Restart you computer
2-When booting, press F8 and select "Safe Mode"
3-After getting to the user menu. Click on a user and this time it will not ask you for a password
4-Go to Start>Run and type "CMD" (without the quotes).
5-At command prompt type in "cd C:WindowsSystem32" (without the quotes), I am assuming C is your System/Windows Drive
6-For safety purposes first make a backup of your Logon.Scr file.. You can do this by typing in "Copy to Logon.scr to Logon.bak" (without the quotes)
7-Then type "copy CMD.EXE Logon.scr"(without the quotes)
8-Then type this command, I will assume that you want to set Administrator's password to "MyNewPass" (without the quotes)
9-Now, type this in (I am assuming that you are still in the directory C:WindowsSystem32) , "net user administrator MyNewPass" without the quotes
10-You will get a message saying that it was successful, this means Administrator's new password is "MyNewPass" (without the quotes)
11-Restart the PC and you will login as Administrator (or whatever you chose to reset) with your chosen password and Enjoy
