It is possible that BUILTIN\Administrators is a logon on the SQL Server Instance. Depending on whether it was changed. So, if your Windows logon is an Administrator on the Windows, you may may be able to log on to the SQL Server using Windows Authentication.
Have you tried it?

if you have authority, why don't you reset the password?
