How can I recover or change a password?

I recently bought a new computer.  The former I removed all the personal info in and changed the password.  I forgot then it use it not for more than a month.  I decided to give the computer to a parent in College who could really use it.  When I took it out to give it I couldn't remember the password so that I changed it. The Admin password you put in to access the desktop computer when you turn it on everything first.  What can I do?

Here you go:
  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Configure Windows to a point before you changed the password.
  8. Plan in advance and create, test and document a spare, even admin account that you have a spare emergency House key.
