How to use Recovery Console on Windows XP - Administrator password
I need to use the Recovery Console from the Windows XP reinstallation CD.
I have booted it up from CD, and selected the default folder of C:\WINDOWS.
Now it asks me for the Administrator password.
What is the administrator password?
Would the first user who used the PC have set it, or was it set by Dell when XP was preinstalled?
I really need to do this urgently, as I have a lot of emails and data I need for my work.

If password has been set by initial user, (and he has forgotten it!), how can I use recovery console?
