You could also try booting into safe mode and logging in as administrator you would be supprise how many times this account has no password.

Passwords in XP don't expire.  Are you on a Windows Domain?  If so maybe it's your network pasword that's expired.

SNAAKE:
I think his bootleg xp expired and cant log in anymore :laugh2: is that the case ??

try slave mode I guess..I cant think of any other way to get your files

johnm160:
Passwords can expire in XP. It all depends on what is set in your local security policy

shmokes:
Can XP be set to log in automatically if you have a password set up?  I know you could do it in 2000, but for some reason I'm thinking that in XP if a username has a password set up on it, the password has to be entered every time you log in.
