The question was about an admin password to log onto Vista. You're
describing how to reset the BIOS password for the computer. Most people
don't use a BIOS password anymore.

There are several ways to recover if you did not create a password reset
disk when you set the password on that admin account.

1. If you have a retail Vista installation disk, you can use the procedure
from the following website. Use the Option 2 there.

What do I do: I can no longer log in or elevate to an administrator account:

If you do not have an installation disk, there are free password recovery
procedures on the internet, I usually do not recommend these simply because
they require advanced computer skills and some of them can turn your
computer into an expensive doorstop.

As a last resort, there is software available that you can purchase that
will solve the problem, easily.

The program that I recommend is the first one, it is very easy to create a
recovery disk that you can use on any Windows PC. These recovery programs
usually cost about 30-40 USD.

Go to http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ . There you will find
zip files that will let you create boot floppy disks or bootable CDs
that will enable you to reset any system password on an NT class
operating system
