Workgroup/Domain problem

A friend of mine changed the domain name on his computer to a workgroup and entered a username and password when prompted. He then rebooted his computer but now he can't log in w/ the credentials he setup. He is typing everything correctly. Is there a way to change this or set a username/password without having access to login?

Thanks

They now need to login in with a local user account and password rather than the domain user account (which is no longer valid).

Hopefully you know one or at least the administrator's password.

Pretty sure you are going to need a local admin account that you can use before you are going to be able to do very much with the computer.

Sometimes they leave the administrator's account with a blank password. Otherwise can you contact whoever did the first install to try and find out what it is.
