Question : Lost User Id and Password for Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition

I have just purchased and configured (I thought) a new bottom end server machine with Windows Server 2003 standard edition. During the configuration sequence I don't remember being asked for a user Id, though I do remember being asked for a password. All of the software was pre-loaded by the manufacturer so I didn't have to use any of the CD's they provided, I just did the configuration. Well it did it's final re-boot after being configured and now wants to know my user id and password. Is there any way I can recover from this without doing a complete re-install from the CD's?

You say you remember being asked for a password? Try username as administrator and your password first. If that doesnt work it may be simpler to just reinstall from CD.
