I don't want XP to by-pass the Welcome Screen.

When I start-up my PC with XP Home, I want to have the log-on screen present
where I have to enter my password.
Unfortunately, it loads my settings right away so I am at the desktop
without doing anything.
I do I have a password set, I have Guest account switched on (the only other
account on my PC) and I have the "Welcome Screen" option checked in the User
Accounts section.
Why is this happening? Do I need to change some other setting in XP?

Thanks for your attention and any help you can give me.

Try start / run of
control userpasswords2
and in there on the Users tab check the box
that says accounts must enter uid/pwd to logon.
Do not adjust anything else using this interface
in XP Home edition.
