"Bad username/password..."

I posted this on the VGOPlayers forum Saturday, hoping it may be a bit more likely to be seen here.

PC pooped the bed earlier this week, got a new one, put HD from old one in as second HD, have Launchpad pointed to the correct folder, Account Login window tells me "Bad username/password...". I don't remember changing my password, was logged in last week. I think I remember John stating early on that passwords are not stored. Do I need to create a new account? If so, can the old one be deleted so I can use the same username?
Thanks and keep up the great work!

Have you tried to reset your password?

I'm also not seeing any account with your IP or email. The forum account is different then the game account which is created at the following link.

Thank You for fast reply.

Trying to create an account with the same name resulted in the password fields cleared.
Tried another account name --> SUCCESS.

Did you try and do a password reset on your first account?

Ok you have 3 accounts look like.

One of then look's like you did a password reset but it hasn't been completed yet. You should have a email with a link and a code to use to reset the password for it.
