Admin account corrupted, can't access it or any of its files.

Okay guys this actually happened a while back and I never got round to fixing it, but basically when I turn my PC I see my guest account and what used to be my admin account, it used to be called Curt and now is saying Other user and I actually have to type the name and password in and it says that it is incorrect. It's also running very slowly so it takes a while for normal actions. Help is hugely appreciated, thank you.

...I actually have to type the name and password in and it says that it is incorrect....

I would use the tool mentioned in option 5 of this tutorial to remove the password:

It says that it will only work with the account that is currently logged in, I can't access my only admin account.

Curtfh,
You posted the exact same problem last September and was given a suggestion. Did you ever try what was suggested? See here:

Where does the tutorial say "it will only work with the account that is currently logged in"?
