try just leaving your username and password blank and then hit ok youcan set
up your password after that. I think that will work. Because you
reinstalled xp you old password is no longer in there.

Hi

If a blank password doesn't work:

You could try to log on with the original Administrator user
if you haven't tried that already:

If that doesn't work out, you might try to reset the local
Administrator password with one of the methods mentioned here:
