VM Local account password reset

$

Yesterday I ran into a problem with one of our master image VMs. Booted it up from Vsphere and connected to it through the console, singing in with our AD admin account and I get the following message:"The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship." and "The trust relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed." And this seems to be a authentication error with connecting to our AD.

So I went on troubleshooting this and looking though forums to fix this, and I would just need to log in with my local account and reconnect with the AD.

 

But here is my problem, I cannot log in to any local account - says it is the wrong password, and I'm 100% sure it is the right one. I've tried every account username/password I could think of, and none of them work, I tried with just administrator and password blank, and it says "This account has been disabled, please contact your administrator".

 

So is there a way for me to reset or remake the local administrator account with a new password through Vsphere?
