    No as such default password still if you have ur guest User account or you can enter any of the account there are ways to remove the password.

    Method 1: open cmd

    put the command

    at [present time of your sytem in international 24hrs sytem +2 min ahead] \interactive "cmd.exe"

    A new cmd.exe will lauch then

    open task manager kill (endtaks) explorer.exe.

    on the new cmd.exe which just lauched enter the command

    explorer.exe

    you have entered to System Account (SuperUser Account) now go to manage users setting and give new passowrd to it.

    if you have a access to any other admin account other than that

    u can simply do that

    with either net user command

    and

    the other way to go to component management and local user\ create password for the lost account.

    if its not the case u need to have windows 2003 password and

    Method #1: it can be done in the repairable mode.

    Method#2: Use Bootable floppy, goto Windows folder

    %system%/windows/system32/conf...

    copy SAM and SYSTEM files go to some other system

    copy these files there and download LC5 tool time can take depending on the lenght of the password as it will try Brutte force attack to crak the password.

    Method#3 Use ERD Commander or Linux KNopix and do the same as method 2.

    Method 4: In the repairable more of Windows there is one option to do it easily I cann't remember that now.(suggesting this method)

    if you mean that you cannot bootup unless you enter a password then u will need to into the bios by restarting your computer and hitting the required key. It will tell you for a split second on the screen. once u go into settup you need to find the place to remove password upon bootup. Or not!
