I tried all the other methods and this is the only one that worked and it was easy. I doesn’t let me create another password for the administrator but it does allow me to set up my own password and identity and I have full access to the computer. I didn’t lose any files or programs as was mentioned in another reply that I saw. Thank you so much!!

If you can’t get your optical disc drive up and running, you could always have somebody mount the OS X installation on a USB drive and mount from it instead.
