My XP is warning me that my password will expire in 7 days. However, i don´t
remember this password and I can´t find the person who installed XP in my PC.
How can I change this password? If I don´t change the password in these 7
days, will I be able to use my computer?

what OS are u running; also do you have the administration rights on that
computer
 
Check in User Accounts and if your account is an administratot account, you
can change the password there.

Click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools
Double click Computer Management
Double click Users and Groups
Click Users
In right hand panel panel, right click on your account name and select
Properties
Click in the Password Never Expires checkbox
