If you have a computer administrator account on the computer

 

Open User Accounts in Control Panel.

Click your account name.

Click Create a password.

In Type a new password and Type the new password again to confirm, type the password for your account.

You can also enter descriptive or meaningful text in Type a word or phrase to use as a password hint to help you remember your password.

 

Click Create Password.

 

 

If you have a limited account on the computer

 

Open User Accounts in Control Panel.

Click Create a password.

In Type a new password and Type the new password again to confirm, type your password.

You can also enter descriptive or meaningful text in Type a word or phrase to use as a password hint to help you remember your password.

 

Click Create Password.

Once you make the password all you will be able to do is change the password. Unless you make a new system admin on your system and then use it to delete your old passworded account.

Would this be the same process for the Home edition of Windows XP?

Yes, it is the same process.
