[Oop! i forgot window xp home password ?]

Well, when a customer drops their PC off to be fixed, they usally don't give me the password. If your friend isnt big on security, you may try holding CTRL and ALT and pressing DEL twice. It will bring you to a logon prompt (like the one from 2000). Type Administrator as the Username and leave the password blank. It should log on...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Try this before anything else..... It works for me most of the times...
