Since you don't have a cdrom or floppy http://www.windowsloginrecovery.com/index.htm  O0
If you can get a external cdrom or floppy there is a free one http://pcsupport.about.com/od/toolsofthetrade/gr/offlinentpwed.htm

Have you not got a CD drive on it? The ophcrack is a bootable CD that you create from the download but obviously you'll have to do this on another PC. Then just use the bootable disc in the PC your fixing.

Have you unzipped the tables_vista_free.zip to your tables/vista_free folder on your USB stick?  If you have you reboot your PC from the USB it launches auto with it.

Yes. Unzipped the tables and put them in the right place as far as I know and it still comes up no tables found.

Are the tables unzipped within your stick? They should be unzipped in your stick and placed in the tables/vista_free folder again in your stick.

Then reboot the PC with the stick and it launches you into a mini linux. It then launches itself in windows and you can recover passwords.  ???

Yes just checked. The tables are in the right spot. Linux boots off the usb fine and a cprompt window pops up after linux boots then nothing. Are there other tables that I need or.... ???
