Please help - I can't reset my admin password

As the title says...I just tried to log into my admin area but the password wasn't working. So after reading some of the topics, I rest the password etc according to this thread http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55378&highlight=Admin+password+reset

After doing all that, I still can't log in.

Please help. All I want to do is to update my store :-(

Are you trying to log into the admin with the user id Admin and the password admin?

Re: Please help - I can't reset my admin password

Yes, I tried Admin with admin but it's not working.

It was working last week with my admin and own password, but last night the login didn't work, so I tried the password reset etc.

Now it's still not working :-(

Re: Please help - I can't reset my admin password

Are you using prefixes on your database tables?

Look in your files:
/includes/configure.php
/admin/includes/configure.php

1 make sure the database name, username and password match

2 make sure your URLs and paths are the same

3 check to see if you have a Prefix set ... if using a prefix you need to alter the fix for the admin table so that you add the prefix to the statements and build the right database name ...
