admin logon

[iecus]

hello folks, I'm not new to windows xp, but i had to do a new install.
now my pc by default logs in under the administrator. when I created my
user ID back it will allow me to switch and log off, but when i reboot
or shut down, once it's back up even thought the new user ID was made,
it will log me in as administrator, or it will prompt me and said that
something is wrong w/ the admin pw and to contact the admin any thoughts
on why this is happening?

thank you.

Control Panel | User Accounts | Change the way users logon
Make sure the Welcome screen is checked.
