Are you talking about the default Administrator, or your ONLY admin-enabled account?

If its the former, you may still have it. Check in Computer management> Users.

If you did lose it, do a system restore, that should give it back if it is indeed gone.

What were you doing before you lost it?

Sorry, I've never heard of this before (not that it couldn't happen though). Theres gotta be a reason for it. Try back-tracking your steps to find out if you did something you shouldn't have.

What happened to your final term research? Did that disappear too?

From my experience if you are having problems with windows it is most likely the result of something that you did or didn't do.

The best thing you could do would be to backup your data files, reformat your hard drive, do a clean install of XP, do all of the updates, and then make sure that you only install programs or drivers that are compatible with XP.
