Help! No User Name On Login Screen

When I start my PC and the screen comes up it just says "To begin,
click your user name" but there is nothing there to click so I can log
in. On the PC I have these accounts-Administrator,1 user. and
something called asp I think. The PC was working fine until I used a
tweaking prog so I guess I did something wrong. But I can't get in!

I've tried everything but nothing works.

Thank-you
 
Try tapping F8 right at power on to get to Safe Mode.
If you can get to a list of options, use UP arrow to get to SM, hit ENTER.
Do a System Restore from in there.
If using Norton, disable it before using SR

Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore
 
Hi!

Use F8 at boot (after BIOS init) to enter Windows in Safe Mode. This should
let you open the control panel and use the user control panel. There switch
to classic login and disable fast user switching.

You could also use regedit (start->execute regedit <enter>) to search for
any occurence of AutoAdminLogon (usually inside WinLogon) and if it's value
it set to 1 change it to 0.

All of this should bring back the normal (nt4/w2k/w2k3) login screen where
you can enter name, password (and domain if configured) and hopefully login
properly then.

Regards

I've tried safe mode but is just looks like it's loading drivers and I
get nothing to work with. It goes back to the same login screen with
no accounts. After using F8 I can get to- restore last good
configuration, but that doesn't help either.
