I have two accounts --one of which is a guest acct--on my WinXP PRo machine
(latest patches) yet I can only log into one acct at a time. IOW, before I
can log into the guest acct I must first log off the other acct. What
registry bit do I need to flip or other action do I need to take o fix this
problem?

Control Panel, User Accounts, Change the way users log on and log off. Enable the welcome screen and Fast User Switching.
 
thanks, however, fast user switching and welcome screen are already enabled.
other ideas?

I don't have an answer for this. I've had the same issue on one of the computer's here and have never resolved it. I did wind up reformatting and reinstalling and the problem hasn't reoccurred. But I was unable to isolate a specific cause for the behavior.
