I had horrible feeling that this was the case. The symptoms you are getting are the same as I have had with hive file corruption but I am unsure what the effect of having an oem build is.

Microsoft seem to be worried you could find yourself without working admin passwords.

I suspect that despite microsofts warnings that you could get away without replacing security.sam.

I would however say that before going down this route you need to make sure you have back-ups of everything on the drive. Which could be easier said than done since that may require removeing the drive and hooking it up to another machine.
