I get the login screen even though I am admin and
never see that screen normally. The same if I start up in Tiger or

That's just a setting in System Preferences, the Security pane I believe though it might be in a different pane for older versions of OS X.

When I enter my correct name and password I am still denied access.

Boot from the install disk and go to Utilities, there you will be able to reset the password.
