    ok,heres the scoop.i was froggy and thought id setup a new user account for my admin. setup for xp pro just in case.did that.somehow it keep showing the login screen for both so i deleted the password for the main admin that comes with the os.so i thought wouldnt show the login screen.rebooted and the main admin is GONE.the ghost admin is all messed up as far as my settings ect.searched on google for help as well as microsoft.then i got a homer simpson and used system restore.man i cant believe it worked,but it did.having been thru all this for basically nothing,how can you get your main user admin back from the beginning before changing all this?i tried changing accounts but with no luck.system restore did the trick.i hope ive made myself semi-clear on what i did.not really good at these things as you can tell.peace and thanks for any specific details on getting back to sguare root one.

    Froggy means you leaped before you looked and landed in a nasty place.:)
