Hello Willie:

I have no skill at all with Linux, and really don't care to learn it for this 
particular situation.  My primary goal is not to reset Admin passwords on my 
win 98 and win 2000 machines as such. 

I'm trying to figure out why this particular soft\ware, Spotmau PowerSuite, 
will not perform as advertised. Maybe there is something fairly simple that I 
can do on a subborn machine that will allow the software CDR to boot. Maybe I 
simply bought some crap software and I can therefore use this worthless CDR for 
a coaster for my coffe cup. It does after all, have a very pretty label on 
that CDR, and I don't want it to go to waste completely.

I wanted o have some kind of simple admin password recovery/reset tool 
available in the event that some knucklehead changes the admin password on my 
AudioVault machines. That tool has to be fairly painless otherwise reloading a good 
Ghost image of the ill machine is the next best bet.
