Forgetting one's WindowsXP Login password can be a real problem. Luckily, you can be prepared for such occassions by making a password reset diskette.
Creating a password reset disk is quite simple, first open up your Control Panel and go to User Accounts. Once that window is open on the top left hand corner under the Related Tasks bar you should see the "Prevent a forgotten password" link. Clicking that opens up a wizard, simply follow the instructions and you're set.
Once you've created your password reset disk store it in a safe place, one where you'll remember. ;-) If you ever forget your password again in the future have no fear, the diskette will save your hide.
