Problem changing admin password

I am trying to update an ols ZenPhoto site to the current release. The former admin gave me a list of the admin passwords but none of them allow me to login to the admin console. I can log into the database with phpMyAdmin as see all the tables. I verified the usernames and went to the login page and input a username and the CAPTCHA code and an email was sent to me with the link to reset the password. I clicked the link and the change password page opened. I input the new password and verified the rest of the info and when I clicke save, I got a message that the password had been successfully changed. However, I still cannot login.

I went into the database and noticed that the password hash had not changed at all. I created a new hash with a MD5 hash generator from the new password and replaced the old one in the zp_administrators table. Still no good.

Any ideas short of deleting the whole thing and recreating from scratch?
