You can't reset the admin password form guest, but you can reset the guest password from the admin.

Do as following methods to reset your admin password.
Step1: Download Windows Password Reset Deluxe ( http://www.windowspasswordreset.net ) and install it.
Step2: Burn the ISO image file onto a USB flash drive.
Step3: Boot up your Windows 7 PC by the bootable burned USB in minutes.
Step4: Remove the forgot Windows 7 password on the operation interface and logon PC without password.

When you log in as a guest, go to start, accessories and right click on cmd prompt then choose run as administrator. when text window comes up type net user administrator * you will then be asked to enter a password type in any password (nothing will show while you're typing) then type it again and you're done.

I have a compaq tablet PC - the user and xp admin passwords have been changed (not by me) - so I can only log on as guest, is there a way of resetting these? I guess someone thought it would be funny but...

The best way to do this is using the Offline NT Password & Registry editor.
You can download it at the following link: http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

This utility will enable you to reset the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on your Windows NT/2k/XP/Vista etc system.
The link above includes some directions on how to use this utility.

I put a password on my computer & then made a Guest Acct and i forgot my password. Is there anyway to get it reset or something?

log in as an administrator account then from there you can delete the guest account and create a new one.

if you do not know the administrator account then you need to go into safe mode for the computer. to get to safemode, just press F8 while the computer is booting up until you are given a menu. From the menu, simply select "Safe mode" and then login to the un-passsworded admin account. once you are inside just delete the guest account there and create a new one.
