Help... get my son off my computer

I have an old laptop with XP Professional on it. It hasnt been used for a few years as we got faster computers. My husband cant remember the password.

I dont have the windows XP Pro disk but do have XP home.

I have tried "Administrator" and no password.. didnt work. Also hitting F8 on startup didnt do anything either.
(maybe i should hit it harder.. hahaha)

Does anyone know anyway to fix this??????

Help I want my computer back.

Thankyou.

Lisa

Hi there iamlisa and welcome to geeks to go

Although you may have legit reasons for this unfortunatly we are unable to help you with the recovery of your password, if you are unable to logon to your system you will need to format and re-install the operating system.

Thank you for your understanding
