Linux based some operating system can reset the admin code but if you have
encrypted NTFS file system, you loose access to this folders. And i don't
know this operation is whether legal, or not. Austrumi - (Linux-console)
based free operating system - can reset admin password. I heard some there
is some windows tools but encryption is still the problem.

I did some searching for you and I found the following article by Vic Ferri
on the TechTrax website. It concerns XP, but just might work with Vista also
(?).

I use ERD Commander or Knoppix for lost passwords. They are boot CD based
Linux programs which allow you to access your drives and recover passwords.
