know how to install or what ever it would take for me to recover the password?

Do you have your own Administrator account?

If so, you can simply log on with your admin account and go to Control
Panel/User Accounts, select your Mothers account and remove the password.

Ronnie;
Thanks for your suggestion; however I don't have and don't know what my
password is? When I purchased this computer I had the company to set it up
and did not know I was to ask for my Administration password? Should you have
any more suggestions please let me know. I inquire today and I can have
everything taken off and reinstalled for $89.00. I would need someone to do
this for me because I do not know how to. Thanks again!

I would go back to the company where you purchased the computer, I have
never heard of a PC builder who puts a password on any account and then does
not make sure the end user has that password. I certainly would not pay to
have the system fixed?
