If you have another administrator account on the computer, you can go into the Control Panel > User Accounts > Add or Remove User Accounts > username that you want to change the password on > Change Password.



If that is not an option, I usually use a password reset disk that I burned a long time ago (from a download). Foregoing that option as well, here is one site that I found that lists some other possible ways to recover/reset your password: http://4sysops.com/archives/three-ways-to-reset-a-windows-vista-admin-password/
