I know someone out there has the answer. I do not remember ever entering a password when laodint XP but now I am panicking as when I boot up, I an getting a Logon Message telling me that my personal password will expire in 7 days, and askes mt yo change it. I have tried entering admin in lower and all caps and also tried password upper and lower to no avail

Any remedy??
Thank

In Home Edition, boot into safe mode. In pro, at the welcome screen press
Ctl-Alt-Del twice.Then in either case log on as Administrator. Leave the
password blank unless you know otherwise.
