Windows 7 deactivates the Administrator account by default.  Well, it
rather hides it.  To make it visible, use the follow steps (sorry, they
are in german, because I took them out of our ticket/FAQ system):

    Systemsteuereung
    System und Sicherheit
    Verwaltung
    Computerverwaltung
    Lokale Benutzer und Gruppen w=C3=A4hlen
    Benutzer w=C3=A4hlen
    mit rechter Maustaste auf Administrator, es erscheint ein Fenster
Eigenschaften
    in diesem Fenster H=C3=A4ckchen bei "Konto ist deaktiviert" entfernen
    mit ok best=C3=A4tigen
    mit rechter Maustaste auf Administrator klicken und im Popup-Menu
"Kennwort festlegen" anklicken
    Warnmeldung taucht auf, auf Fortsetzen klicken
    Kennwort eingeben und ok klicken, fertig
