  How do I recover my admin password?

Assuming you are using XP: Using XP Home, just boot into safe mode and login with the Administrator account; unless you logged into it in safe mode previously and assigned it a password, it doesn't have one. Then just go to the control panel and reset the password for your regular account.

IIRC, XP Pro isn't setup with that same Administrator account like Home is (correct me if I'm wrong, please). But can't you log into the Recovery console and delete or reset the password if it's not on a domain? Been a while since I've had to do something like that.
