Locked out of Vista after hiding the only Administrator

I hope someone can help me!
I have Vista Home edition, in the past with XP, I was able to "hide"
the Administrator account, so it would not be seen at login. I tried
this with Vista and I have locked myself out. Is there anyway I can get
back in and change the registry back to it's original configuration?
These are the instructions I used to "hide" the Admin account.

The administrator on this particular machine is named "Owner".
Can I enable the built in "Administrator" account?

Hi, I would run Hiren´s Boot CD from starting it as the first boo
device, and hit the aplication for configure acounts, passwords, aces
and solve that problem straight forword. Get some other pc with ne
conection and download that cd with a torrent downloader and get it fro
a good torrent site. Burn the cd and there you go! Test it first, rea
instrutions carefuly, etc. Advice you Utorrent and Pirate Bay.

ribeiro, thanks for the advice. Can I edit the registry using Hiren'
Boot CD?
I know the Administrator password, I just can't login to Vista becaus
the Administrator(Owner) is hidden. I don't need to reset an
passwords, I just need to "undo" what I did to the registry?
I hope I am making sense.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

for computer problem solving, recovering, a big list, and there you wil
be hable to delete and or create any sort of accounts, activate or just
putting it aside for a sleep, etc.
Just go here for details and the torrent that i personaly advice you to
download.

Hello RonHyatt, If you read the tutorial from top to bottom, you would
have read the part about what to do if you hid the admin account by
mistake--- Go To Safe Mode and Unhide. Use the same procedures only this
time the name of the "user account" is your admin account.

Try the following link with the user ID you first created when
initializing Vista:
