I forgot my Pass to vista like a dumb***

ok, i have been googling all day trying to figure out how to get back into my computer, as it has many bookreports notes journals and the like, but the whole F8 thing safe mode is not working and i have a general idea as to why. there is one admin on my computer but the admin access user now lives in hawaii. (he was always picky about being the best so i let him make me a limited user)

so the whole safemoded admin thing isnt working for me so i need to know how i get into it and change all that stuff so i can access and regain reign over my laptop.

any help is deeply appreciated
