When I was little I booted into a Linux LiveCD and replaced magnify.exe with cmd.exe on a family computer with login time restrictions. Enabling Windows Magnifier from the accessibility menu on the login screen caused magnify.exe--now Command Prompt--to be launched as SYSTEM. From there you could start up explorer.exe to get a SYSTEM user desktop.
