[SOLVED] How to logon as Admnistrator ?

[jw4444]

I have an old Windows 7 machine. The single user account is not working. I would like to logon with the Administrator account (for which I have the password) but the logon screen displays an icon and name of the user account and a field for the password. There is no field to enter or change the username or any way I can see to logon as another user. This happens i normal and safe mode. So my question: Is there a way to get the old-style logon screen/dialog where you entered the username and password? Is there a way to make Windows logon with the Administrator account? Thanks.

this should work assuming you can boot it to the command prompt. the account is disabled by default for a reason. once you get that user working again, turn it off again. this is very important for overall pc security.
