Default Administrator Password
I have Win Xp Pro and I usually log into my own name as the user. However, I am trying to run a game by going to the start.exe file, right clicking and choosing to run it as administrator.

ONly problem is - I don't know my PASSWORD! Where can I find that?

Thanks

Unless you set a password it should be blank.

If it does have a password for some reason you could always change it yourself. Of course you'll need to have administrative rights on your own username, but I'm sure you already do.

To change the admin password go to Start-->Run and type "control userpasswords2"

Highlight Administrator, then reset the password on the bottom.

When I installled XP Prof on my machine it never asked for a Administrator password to be created. Just a profile name. I had to give the admin account a password after I had installed XP and setup my profile.
