Hello! I may have broken my Windows 2000 access, it seems. I wanted to set up
an automatic logon so that I could dispense with entering my
username/password everytime I turned the machine on (IBM Thinkpad T23).
Somewhere on the Internet I found a DITY site saying that I could do this by
changing my Network Identification settings from Domain to Workgroup, which I
did. Now Windows won't recognize my password and says that my username and
domain might be incorrect. But I can't change my domain without logging in...
so, does anyone know a way out of this catch-22 I've gotten myself into? Is
there some way I'm suppposed to combine my username and domain name when
logging in as a Workgroup? I know for certain I didn't change my password,
but nonetheless I can't login. I'd really like to avoid taking my laptop to
a repair shop and having it formatted and reloaded, as there are important
files on there that I don't want to lose.
Thanks,
Andreas
