Q: Can't remember my Admin password on iMac 10.5.8

Hi everyone.  I am running into a major issue.  I cannot remember my iMac admin password (10.5.8) and I have tried everything that was suggested on this website along with multiple other sites. 

 

When I startup my iMac it automatically logs onto my admin desktop (no password, etc.)  I want to install something and I cannot make changes to my account because I can't remember my password.  I have tried rebooting with command + S and whenever I enter in the commands, I either get error messages or am told the commands are not recognized.  Any advice would be really appreciated.  I do not have the original CDs.  I am able to log onto a Standard and Guest account- just can't install anything because they're not the Admin account.


Driving myself crazy. Please help!

iMac (24-inch Early 2008), 10.5.8
