We present an X-ray binary population synthesis model, and use it to simulate the evolution of X-ray binaries formed in a burst of star formation of duration 20 Myr and star-formation rate 10 M&sun; yr-1. We find that the X-ray luminous phase persists long after the star-formation episode has ended. The 2-10 keV X-ray luminosity can reach values of 1040-1041 erg s-1, comparable to those of some Seyfert galaxies. These models are directly applicable to starburst galaxies as well as LINERs powered by vigorous star formation.
