Somehow my "Administrator Log On Box" and space for my
password has disappeared and I cannot locate it. I just
keep getting back to a "Guest Log on Box".

How can I locate the Administrator Box ???

Thanks.

In XP Pro, press Ctl-Alt-Del twice at the Welcome screen and logon to
"Administrator" with the installation password. In Home Edition, reboot
and press F8 repeatedly after the BIOS screen. Logon to Administrator in
safe mode with no password.

Administrator is removed from the Welcome Screen when you create a
second admin account. Administrator should be reserved for emergency use
and another admin account used for routine admin.
