Greg,
I always keep a copy of SystemRescueCD around
(http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page).
There's a password recovery tool for Windows on it to recover/reset the
administrator password. It doesn't ALWAYS work, but I'm lucky most of
the times.

Return it to him with Fedora on it instead ;)

I took a course in speed reading and was able to read War and Peace in
twenty minutes.

It's about Russia.
