    Reset admin password on a computer?

    the family computer, had the admin password changed to the ONLY admin account.
    So installing most programs to recover the password is not allowed without admin access.

    We can only sign on non admin accounts or as guest!

    Any suggestions?

    Use the recovery features on your Windows CD/DVD.

      Here download and use this.

      This will allow you to change the windows password by booting up to a prompt.

      Good Luck
