You might want to have a look at this article. Have you tried obvious passwords such as administrator, password, name of the guy who sold it etc?

its ok :D. just take it to someone that has alot of computer knowledge and they should be able to fix it. if you take it to a professional or a shop don't let them charge you more that £30 so ask for a quote before they do it.
