I have installed XP it keeps on saying your password will expired in 14 days
next day would be 13 days I did not know what it meant I never put a
password in so I tried to put a password in but it still keeps saying the
same it will expire until it would not let me in any more Just keeps saying
make sure your password and user name are correct I had an ID key for
windows and put in so it would let me install windows xp I do not know what
to do can any body help me Thank you

Wild guess here, did you activate it? As I understand it XP will only work
30 days after installation unless you activate it.
