Lyn,
If you can bypass the password to get at the data, there would be little point to using security on the drive. You are going to have to try and crack your password; make a list of all the variations that you use normally use or that you may have used for that device - don't start trying passwords again until you have the list as complete as possible.
Once you have the list as complete as you can (include variations), then start at the beginning and mark each one off as you try it. If this does not work, put it aside for awhile then look at the list again and see if you can think of more to try. You essentially have to brute force hack the drive
The only other solution I can think of is to wipe the drive and start over. Maybe someone else can come up with a more elegant solution.
