Hello,

This post should be in the window's section:

anyway I have had this password in the past and the best way is to reset your bios,

you need to disconnect the power and open your PC and remove the bios battery, leave about 2 minute then replace the battery then cover and power on - this should work!

You should have posted this in the Windows section.
This password doesn't look like a BIOS password as mentioned by lawrenzo.Tell me something what was the result of restoring the system using the recovery CD.Was it booting from the CD and restroing the OS?.
If you are not able to boot from cd make the CDdrive as first boot device in the BIOS and try it.I would prefer you are not familiar with this better to call some engineers.

When a second user is defined to XP, then the login screen appears. This is usually a good thing, so try typing in 'administrator' (without the quotes) in the userid field and leave the password field blank; then press enter.

Let us know what happens.
