Password?

Hello,
I am running xp pro and I'm recieving a
message that I must change my password. I don't recall ever putting one in. I went into my bios and disabled
passwords but it still won't let me boot.
Can someone please help.
Thanks

I booted up in safe mode and made the change. Everything is working great. It even solved a slow start problem I posted the other day. Thank you VERY much!
