Help with Windows 2000

I messed up my dad's computer.
It's a Dell Inspiron 8100 running Windows 2000 Professional.
I was trying to set up a network between it and my laptop and I changed it from the domain it was on, to a workgroup that my laptop was set to.

Normally, I would think this wouldn't be a problem. However, I forgot to take into account that at his last place of employment, an IT guy made it so he had to log in and it was tied to the domain that I changed off of. Now we can't log in to Windows.

I have already tried booting into safe mode, but it still prompts the log in screen. There also appears to be no way to change anything other than user name and password on the log in window.

If anyone has suggestions as to how I can bypass the logging in part to change it back to the way it was, I would greatly appreciate it.
