You can "crack" your password using OPHCrack (live CD), it uses BRUTE FORCE, so it can take years...

hi Vijay,

 

well.. if you forgot the local admin password you can reset it by using a boot able cd like Bart_PE, or Windows_PE there are many out there. But If it is for the domain admin then your in a pickle. as you have the option of trying to crack the hash which could take 10mins to 10000 years.. you should make sure that you have renamed the default administrator account to a different name and have a backup admin account just in case you forget the administrator password or the administrator account gets compromised

 

 

Cheers !!
