Hi ,man . you forgot to tell us what password.

Such as windows password,there are two methods.
1rd Method:
Try following trick which is actually a loophole in Windows XP Setup and a big security hole:
A. Boot using Windows XP Setup CD and follow the instruction like Accepting EULA, etc.
B. When it asks to repair your existing Windows installation, accept it and press "R" to run the repair.
C. Setup will start repairing your Windows and will start copying files, etc.
D. After a few minutes setup will restart your system and when it restarts don't press any key when it shows "Press any key to continue..." otherwise Setup will start from the beginning. Don't press any key and setup will resume where it left.
E. Now it'll start doing other tasks and will show a small progressbar with a few details in left side.
F. Look carefully at the details and when it shows "Installing devices", press <Shift>+F10 keys in your keyboard.
G. It'll open a Command Prompt window. Now type nusrmgr.cpl and press <Enter>.
H. It'll open the same "User Accounts" window which you see in Control Panel.
I. Now you can remove or reset any account password without any problem.
2th Method:
There are many 3rd party utilities which claim to recover forgotten Windows password:
Windows Password Recovery Tool 3.0 Service:
Windows Password Recovery Tool is a program that works instantly to remove any lost or forgotten password. Simply boot your PC from the supplied Boot CD, and get access to forgotten Windows and administrator passwords in just seconds. Their method is so much faster/easier, and works great!

Such as bios password, there also two methods.
1rd Method:Give motherboard discharge
2rd Method:Use reset bios password tool,now only one tool call "BIOS/CMOS Password Recovery Tool " can do that, you can visit its site:http://www.biospasswordrecovery.com/

If you lost windows password. I think the best solution is making a windows password recovery disk with the third part utility. The disk works perfectly to recover windows password to “Blank”.It is also useful for administrator password recovery, you can wrote it to an blank CD or USB flash drive to recover administrator password. Booting up and clearing a password takes a minute or two works like a charm.

If it is the password to get into windows, there is one way that may work. If the computer does not have an administator password, the password of the user can be removed by going into safe mode. When in safe mode, go to user accounts, select the user and remove the password.

To enter safe mode, press F8 a couple of times while starting up and a screen will apear, start windows normally, safe mode, etc. Select Safe Mode.
