XP LOGON

I have unticked the 'Use Welcome Screen' option in User accounts, thinking
that my laptop would start up and go straight to my desktop, as I do not need
any user accounts. Now when starting it asks for a password for Admin. Is
there a default password (as I have never used Admin before) and once back in
how can I set the comp to go straight to my desktop?

Often time the password to the built-in administrator account is left
blank, just press <Enter>.

Make sure that you have passwords for your accounts! The problem you
encountered is quite often caused because the selected account has a
blank password.
