Need help. Took the laptop of the domain

[toant103]

This is a windows xp machine. It was at the domain log on screen but the laptop is not connected to the domain anymore. I went into the control panel and remove the computer from the domain. Now I can't log back in with the username and password.

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks

Log on with a local administrator account?

call your IT guys, who will smack you in the back of your head and rejoin it to the domain

The thing is the domain does not exist anymore. This laptop belong to autorent and it's no longer in business. That's why I took the notebook off the domain

LOL @ weaver

As others have posted...not in domain, then you MUST use a local account, which of course you created before you unjoined it--right??
