Default Lost Password

My daughter-in-law has forgotten her password. The configuration is WinXP SP1.

Assuming I can remove the drive from her machine and access the drive,
how can I remove the password on her drive.

Perhaps there is another way?

TIA,
Tom S.

Tom;
Start here:

If you place the drive in another computer as a slave, you can gain
access to the data by Taking Ownership, #9 on this link:
