XP Admin password for CD boot

Posted: 07-18-2003, 01:09 AM
I am attempting to run the repair option using the
install cd from my dell pc. When I select the repair (r)
option it asks me for the administrators password. I have
entered blank since I had not set it. That did not
work. I have gone into sav mode and changed it. then
rebooted with the cd and that did not work either.

What do I need to do to get this option to work?

thanks for the help

Doug
