Changed password but now Can't get back in!

I have administrator account and changed my password 2 days ago. However, I
can no longer sign in at all even though I know I'm using the right password.

I've been told the only option is to reinstall the system but as its new and
it was a prelaoded computer I don't have any discs.

What can I do?

Please help.

You need to read the documentation that came with the computer. All
pre-installed computers will have an option to recover the system back to
the way it was when you received it. This may be in the form of a recovery
partition or DVD. If you cannot find the documentation, call the maker of
the computer for instructions.
