JUst got a new vaio and my 8 year old has managed to foobar it in 5 mins, it seems to have no users - particularly administrator account. How can I recover this set up an admin account without a recovery disk ??

How come you don't have the recovery disc? If it's new then you can't have lost it already.

Otherwise, you'll need to borrow an install disc for the OS that you have (eg. WinXP) and do a repair installation.
