    Forgot PIN, reset my password. PC won't recognize new account password.

    Forgot password....

    No can't be changed, unless you can access the admin account in safemode.

    you can also try ERD commander.

    but that is in the case if the password is for OS

    if its a bios password you would have to try to reset the bios by using a jumper.
    Or getting a master password from the manufacturer
