Put a Linux startup disc on a bootable usb stick. Set the computer to boot from the USB stick, then follow the instructions to reset the admin password.

Can't remember the exact wording of the Linux boot disc, but it is self explainatory once you get in there. Did this a couple of times for customers at the computer shop I worked at.

Failing that, log in as the administrator, and change her account password from there.
