There is a small (bootable CD/ISO) linux distro called Austrumi that 
you can use for this purpose
http://sourceforge.net/projects/austrumi

type this at the boot prompt
boot: nt_pass

and you'll be in a console utility that you can use to recover/reset 
the administrative password

I've heard that EBCD also does well for this purpose
