    I have fecked up a laptop and need help folks.

    I have a laptop which HAD one user account, called administrator.

    I created another admin account called paul and then allowed a guest account.

    Now I find that I have lost the former admin account and the associated icon at startup, and access to its programs and desktop.

    I can get into it via my computer and explore, but cannot boot into the original administrator user. I even tried to create a user called administrator but it does not allow it as one already exists!


    Anyone help?

    Thanks all.
