Hi, so I have a couple of PCs on my home network (a workgroup) and I have a work-issued computer that connects to my work domain. I decided that I need content from my work PC on my other computers. I decided to just change it from the domain to my home workgroup. After setting it to my home workgroup, I restarted the PC. Now my log on username and password are invalid, and I can’t log in at all. I have no system restore programs (like PC Doctor) and I can’t get into windows in normal, or safe mode. Is there a default username and password? I used to log in under my username and password and my work domain. Now that i’ve left the domain it doesn’t let me in at all. How can I get back into Windows?
Thanks for any help,

System Specs:
I have an old Dell running windows XP pro (32-bit) service pack 2, less a gig of RAM, small hard drive,
(i don’t use the work computer very often, so i’m not familiar with the specs)
I’m an advanced PC user and builder. (fyi)
Thanks for your help, we got it working.
We told the PC to boot from our Windows XP CD and from there we edited the username and password, got into safe mode, and system restored to yesterday afternoon.
thanks for the help.
