I have upgraded from win xp pro to win vista rc1. I onlz used Administrator
account in the windows xp so i dont have any other accounts active. After
upgrade when i try to login to my administrator account(i dont use
password) it says that account has been disabled. Is there any way that i can
access my files. I have backups made but I am really dissapointed in the way
vista locked up my files.

And for the record...I cannot login to it from safe mode either. If i click
on Administrator icon it gives me the disabled message, and if I enter
Administrator in the other user option it gives me the same thing.

Vista raped me too. Not only did it disable the Administrator account, which
I was actively using, and had a password; but it will not let me login using
the other account on the system as it had a blank password.

I have found that if you boot with the CD to repair mode you can access a
DOS prompt and run regedit. I founfd some other references to a reg edit
that will enable the administrator account, but have had no success thus far.

Not happy!
