You need the XP password, or does it have hard drive encryption?

If you need the XP password have you tried to log on as the Administrator with a blank password?

If all else fails you can try to reinstall fresh using the recovery disc.

Put windows installation disk inside cdrom, reboot computer, during boot up select to boot from cd rom, follow on-screen instructions to wipe the hard drive and install the windows os
