Thanks Macattack94 and alk. I recall reading once that starting up from the rescue floppy (190, no CD-ROM unfortunately) is a way to fix a forgotten password. Alk: the password window has a big warning about turning off Password Security before booting in SCSI disk mode. It suggested that it would not work with it on.

I have to make a backup floppy on another 7 machine. I hope it works. I also had heard mentions of a backdoor password from Apple. There must be some way (besides the boot disk) to fix a password problem. "The computer for the rest of us", eh?
