There is no how you can delete Administrator account without using another administrator account, so tell us what exactly happened.
for the mean time, boot your system in safe mode and use the main "administrator" account .

100% right collins. @ user were you asked for a password before deleting ? like my colleagues has said get to safe mode by restarting your

workstation dont wait for anything keep pressing F8 until you see advance option use the arrow to highlight safe mode and press enter

dont be alarm! your icons/text will big to 640 by 480 reslotion mode. Just thought I educate you on that. lol. anyway bro

get to safe mode then get Run box by pressing windows logo + R and type in the box C:\users\user press enter then try seareching for your files

who knows anything can happen in IT there are many option to try there's never right or wrong answer. try checking the recycle bin

if not then try using system restore by click start, accessories, all programmes, system tools and system restore. Good luck !

It's TOTALLY impossican't. . .to delete an admin account on xp, if you're a secondary user (say guest or entry-level)

If u have a windows XP CD, run it. . it'll prompt you to "Press Any key to boot from CD" Do so!
Let the text-based portion i.e. loading all files needed for setup, finish

You should see something like this. . .

To setup Windows XP, Press ENTER
To repair Windows, Press R, something like that
To quit, Press F3

Choose the 1st option, it'll then "SEARCH" for previous installations of Windows XP on your hard drive! If found, you should see something like this;
To repair this installation, Press R
To setup windows on a different partition, Press ESC . . . Something like that!

My broda, Just Press R. . . It should restore the OS to the way it was. . .

Hope this works for you!

Cheers

OR

Better still. . . try Deji'z option!
