I just pressed the enter key when installing beacourse it asked for it when
files did not copy correctly.
As for the passwords, I have just formatted the disk now and installed XP

I did not write anything anywhere this time and still it want open with out

Now it is not administrator, but owner and guest. Both will not open with
out password.
