Cannot Login to Windows XP Home Edition

I bought a computer off of my uncle, the only two user accounts are my
cousin's and her friend's but neither of them remember their passwords to log
in. How do I reset the password or bypass it so I can get onto my desktop and
change it from there? If I reboot in Safe-Mode would it take me to my desktop
and allow me to change the user ID's and passwords?

Boot in to Safe Mode and log in as Administrator the password should be
blank (ie just hit enter) then go into control panel make your self an
account and reset the passwords for the other two.
