Hi, whenever I boot my computer; the log-in screen shows up and i have to manually click my user name to load my account. This never happened before, but it could be that once i clicked switch user and ever since it has been doing that. I only have one user account with all the privelages and all that, thanks in advance, SQ
Hello sq3,

Click Start | Run, type control userpasswords2, and click OK. Select the user account from the list (the account to which you want to automatically logon). Uncheck/untick the "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer" option, and click OK. Type the user account password (if one exists) and complete the process.

For Windows XP Home, don't try to auto-login as the built-in Administrator, as you'll receive an error message.

Regards,

Ax
