Recently had this problem and only found 1 answer which took 3 hours to find and was in french, so thought be handy to post it here.

use partedit32.exe can be found here with instructions http://laptop-support.net

follow there instructions to unhide the partition. i found that putting hardrive into another pc worked as somehow the bios on the laptop kept hiding the partition even when this was disabled in the bios.

once you can see the partition in XP or whatever OS you using, search that partition for a file called aimdrs.dat. open this file with notepad and there will be your password.
