How to reset forgotten Windows Server 2008 AD domain password?

<p>The main problem is Utilman.exe can't use. When I type copy C:\\windows\\system32\\utilman.exe C:\\windows\\system32\\Utilman.exe.bak, It's says Specified path not found. after examination I found unable to read HDD partition because of RAID configured by SCSI builtin with MB.2nd I boot the Server with Win Server2008 CD and try to install Windows but also HDD partitions does not seen because of SCSI drivers not included in Windows CD so SCSI card no detect and so HDD's partitions not shown. Any one has a good solutions?</p>

If it doesnt work for you, you might need to reset by through registry, I am sure it wont be needing SCSI drivers to be loaded for RAID http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/
