is this a Unix box?

if so, log on as the oracle account to the Unix server. Then in sqlplus, login as follows

sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

this will get you in as the database owner and will allow you to change the system password

alter user system identified by your_new_password;

then log out of sqlplus and log in as system to do what you need to
