Only user account on Vista Ultimate says password is expired butaccess denied when changing.

i read this post
http://groups.google.com/group/micro...c409ca13516339

and that sounds like a great idea, but the problem I am having now is
that I have a user that has a fully encrypted HDD (Guardian Edge
Encryption Plus) so without decrypting the drive, I cannot access the
partition with a recovery DVD - are there any other options, or is a 5
hour decryption then the recovery process mentioned in the link above
my only option?

does anyone know WHY or HOW this happens?
