Boot up screen message

[Martin ©¿©¬]

hi
each time my PC boots up I'm presented with a screen asking
"to begin click your user name"
This same screen also appears when the PC has been left idle for over
5 mins (power management but not hibernation) mentioning how many
tasks are active

Anyone know why this is occurring and how to fix please?

In the Control Panel, open Display properties. On the screensaver tab,
uncheck the box: "On resume, display welcome screen". Then, under Power
Options on the advanced tab uncheck "prompt for password when computer
resumes from standby".

Let's hope it sticks
