In recovery console it asks for the XP pro password, its late and I cant ring my client but i want to get it done

I need the XP pro password or a way around it,  I have tried (no password) & Clients name etc but no good

I've seen this problem a bunch on OEM machines. Administrator password should be blank but doesn't work...
Unfortunately the fix requires a call to MS for the hotfix.
