Getting a user to auto login?

[Mike]

I want to boot to the desktop with user: login logging in (no password)

At the moment it gets stuck at the user screen forcing you to chose which
user to login is it not possible to force one of them to login?

Forget these vista computer geek wanabies and listen to a pro how its done:
I made screenshots to help you....

go to run (if you dont have the run command on the start menu, right click
on the start menu
select properties and you will see a customize button, Press that. In the
list there is a RUN put a checkmark on that) see screenshot>>

then type> control userpasswords2
See screenshot> http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/4935/screenie3qb4.jpg

press enter

then uncheck the option that says USERS MUST ENTER A USER.. bla bla
see screenshoy> http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/82/screenie4kh8.jpg

The type the EXACT name of the user you want to autologon and then enter a
password if you have it, if you dont leave it blank see screenshot
