Q: reset user account

I just installed Mountain Lion from the install disk on a brand new HD in a core 2 duo iMac.

 

Went through the set-up.  Set up user name, password and hint. Only odd thing was not being able to set the time or time zone.

 

On reboot, it wouldn't recognize the password.  Many tries. No cap lock, etc. 

 

My only option is to begin the set up from scratch.  Done it four times now.

 

Since it's a fresh install on a new HD, there's no recovery partition.

 

I appreciate any suggestions.

 

Thanks
