BitLocker can be used to secure an entire drive against accidental media loss.

Encrypting your SAM File Is a good option however as you said you can not use Bitlocker so you can go for the boot time passwords that would prevent the users from changing the boot order and use an alternate platform to boot and access the windows resources.
