Hi guys

could someone point me in the right direction please. When I start windows
xp pro it come up with the welcome screen and ask me to click on my user
account to start windows, no password just my name.

What I want if I can is to so away with this so windows just boot right into
the main screen, can I and if so how or could someone point me in the right
direction please.

I am the computer administrator in the user accounts details but it has
asp.net machine and guest account in there aswell, and I have net framework
installed which may not help but I do need this program

cheers Dave

You can use the following steps to enable automatic logon:

1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type: control userpasswords2 , and then click OK.
3. In the dialog box that appears, clear the "Users must enter a user name
and password to use this computer" check box, and then click OK.

Hi ... See if this helps ....

You can use the following steps to enable automatic logon:

1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type: control userpasswords2 , and then click OK.
3. In the dialog box that appears, clear the "Users must enter a user name
and password to use this computer" check box, and then click OK.
