I've seen the answer to this posted before, but I've never needed it on
my computer, so I ignored it.

Now my wife has inadvertently changed some setting on *her* computer,
and would like to return to the "straight through" startup (no logon
box). How can I do that for her?

Thank you for any help.

Tony
