Hi Sam,

The answer is that it probably will. In the Microsoft guidelines they
recommend to use an account that doesn't have the password change.

However, if you have to use a userid that the password changes then you
needto be very careful to make sure that everywhere you used the account in
the setup is changed (and if you have it on any services separately). This
is especially true in the SharePoint settings.

Before you make any changes you should try to find every location that the
account is being used. Then, you need to make the changes all at once. If
you miss one a service or other part of the system may fail - up to a full
stop.

Hi Sam,
Try to look into this link

If you wish to change the password you can do that using STSAdm..
e.g. stsadm -o updateaccountpassword -userlogin <domain\username> -password
<newpassword> -noadmin

I hope this helps!
