I changed my password in WINDOWS VISTA and did not make a reset disk. Is
their anyway I can possibly get into my account in order to change the
password? I have some pictures I have not loaded on cd yet and really don't
want to loose them. I called the GEEK Squad but I can't afford them. Please
help.

If you made a reset disk for your previous password your are OK. That reset
disk will work even after multiple password changes.

Go to http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ . There you will find
zip files that will let you create boot floppy disks or bootable CDs
that will enable you to reset any system password on an NT class
operating system.
