hey everyone i'm new here...i was wondering if someone could help me with a problem
we were trying to hook up a computer to my home network and realized that the network on the computer was a domain while the rest of ours at home were on a workgroup. so, i had the computer join my home work group instead of it's previous domain. the join was successful but once the computer restarted, we can now no longer log onto that computer!
is there anyway to bypass the network logon? 
my father has extremely important work files on that computer, and we cannot log on! i tried canceling out of the logon but there is no way to even get to the desktop without logging on. his previous name and password now won't work after changing to the workgroup, and i can't logon to change back to the domain. i'm so lost! please help!!! 
i believe he is running windows professional XP on that computer.
