Resetting Username & Password

Feeling really dumb already so please don't rub it in...I installed VMWare ESX Server 3i on a machine a few weeks ago in hopes of doing some "playing around" with VMWare...well, multiple things came up and after a few weeks have passed I had some time today to sign on with the client app and have tried every possible username/password combination I can think of...I can't remember it...I'm pretty sure I changed it from the default...what are my options? I had completed two P2V's and am wondering if there is anyway short of doing a complete reinstall of getting the username/password reset to defaults?

Take a look at http://www.vm-help.com/esx/esx3i/Reset_root_password.php on how to reset the "root" password.
